Description

F2FS-fs (loop1): detect filesystem reference count leak during umount, type: 10, count: 1 kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/super.c:1639!

In f2fs_put_super(), it tries to do sanity check on dirty and IO reference count of f2fs, once there is any reference count leak, it will trigger panic.

The root case is, during f2fs_put_super(), if there is any IO error in f2fs_wait_on_all_pages(), we missed to truncate meta_inode's page cache later, result in panic, fix this case.
