Subject: Re: [PATCH] f2fs: clean up codes in f2fs_gc related with
 write_checkpoint

Ping...

Since has_not_enough_free_secs(sbi, 0, 0) must be true if has_not_enough_free_secs(sbi, sec_freed, 0) is true,
write_checkpoint is sure to execute in both conditions, and segno is NULL_SEGNO in both conditions.
