In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: f2fs: compress: fix to call f2fs_wait_on_page_writeback() in f2fs_write_raw_pages() BUG_ON() will be triggered when writing files concurrently, because the same page is writtenback multiple times. 1597 void folio_end_writeback(struct folio *folio) 1598 { ...... 1618 if (!__folio_end_writeback(folio)) 1619 BUG(); ...... 1625 } kernel BUG at mm/filemap.c:1619!

All pagelocks were released in f2fs_write_raw_pages(), but whether the page was in the writeback state was ignored in the subsequent writing process. Let's fix it by waiting for the page to writeback before writing.
