Description

### Description

Hi Team,
We are using AWS EKS cluster v1.25. It is supporting containerd. There is some space issue in all worker nodes and seems the EKS garbage collecter is not working as expected. So we manually tried to delete the unsed images using "crictl rmi --prune". But it not worked. Then we connected with AWS team and they recommended to use "nerdctl".
We installed it and ran "nerdctl system prune --all" which again not resolved our space issue. Not sure what is the issue. Need urgent help.

### Steps to reproduce the issue

1.yum install nerdctl -y
2. nerdctl system prune --all
3.
