However, if it is cleared, then FG_GC will lose the chance to have a
quick selection of the victim
candidate, which BG_GC has selected and aborted in last round or there
are still some blocks
ungced because these blocks belong to an opening atomic file. Especially
for the large section
case, when BG_GC stops its job if IO state change from idle to busy,
then it is better that FG_GC
can continue to gc the section selected before. So how about adding
another map to record these
sections, and make FG_GC/BG_GC select these sections, as for the old
victim_secmap, keep its
old logic, BG_GC can not select those sections in victim_secmap, but
FG_GC can.

OK, I understand.
