Then in large section, if current segment is all valid, we won't skip scanning
it, so do we need to change like this:

if ((gc_type == BG_GC && has_not_enough_free_secs(sbi, 0, 0)) ||
	get_valid_blocks(sbi, segno, false) == sbi->blocks_per_seg ||
	get_valid_blocks(sbi, segno, true) == BLKS_PER_SEC(sbi))
	return submitted;
