kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/compress.c:1082!
invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP PTI
CPU: 4 PID: 2753477 Comm: kworker/u16:2 Tainted: G OE 5.12.0-rc1-custom #1
Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-2 04/01/2014
Workqueue: writeback wb_workfn (flush-252:16)

The root cause is truncate() may race with overwrite as below,
so that one reference count left in page can not guarantee the
page attaching in mapping tree all the time, after truncation,
later find_lock_page() may return NULL pointer.
- prepare_compress_overwrite
- f2fs_pagecache_get_page
- unlock_page
- f2fs_setattr
- truncate_setsize
- truncate_inode_page
- delete_from_page_cache
- find_lock_page
Fix this by avoiding referencing updated page.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
