When CONFIG_F2FS_FS_COMPRESSION is not set (i.e. x86_64 defconfig +
CONFIG_F2FS_FS=y):

$ make -skj"$(nproc)" O=out distclean defconfig fs/f2fs/data.o
../fs/f2fs/data.c: In function ‘f2fs_mpage_readpages’:
../fs/f2fs/data.c:2327:5: error: label ‘next_page’ used but not defined
2327 | goto next_page;
| ^~~~

Cheers,
Nathan
