CVE-2025-71107: f2fs: ensure node page reads complete before f2fs_put_super() finishes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
f2fs: ensure node page reads complete before f2fsputsuper() finishes
Xfstests generic/335, generic/336 sometimes crash with the following message:
F2FS-fs (dm-0): detect filesystem reference count leak during umount, type: 9, count: 1 ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at fs/f2fs/super.c:1939!

It appears that sometimes it is possible that f2fsputsuper() is called before all node page reads are completed. Adding a call to f2fswaitonallpages() for F2FSRDNODE fixes the problem.
