The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a straightforward internal code cleanup in Bitcoin Core. It removes a helper method called GetAll() and replaces its uses with direct access to an internal list of chainstates. The change also adds a small safety check to ignore chainstates based on invalid snapshots when considering new block candidates. There is no indication this fixes an active security bug or introduces a vulnerability.

Recommended action

No security action required. Treat as normal code maintenance and review for correctness during routine code review.
