Michal Marek spotted the same issue in UBIFS and this patch fixes UBI,
see "UBIFS: not build debug messages with CONFIG_UBIFS_FS_DEBUG disabled"

When UBI debugging is disabled, we have debugging messages defined as:

if (0)
	pr_debug()

But pr_debug macro defines data structures with debugging data and makes
the linux binary larger, even though we have "if (0)".

Btrfs needs to be able to control how filemap_write_and_wait_range() is called
in fsync to make it less of a painful operation, so push down taking i_mutex and
the calling of filemap_write_and_wait() down into the -&gt;fsync() handlers.  Some
file systems can drop taking the i_mutex altogether it seems, like ext3 and
ocfs2.  For correctness sake I just pushed everything down in all cases to make
sure that we keep the current behavior the same for everybody, and then each
individual fs maintainer can make up their mind about what to do from there.
Thanks,

If we have debugging enabled and switching to R/O mode because of an error -
dump the stack to improve UBI error reporting and make the further diagnostics
easier to do.

<title>UBI: fix oops in error path</title>

This patch fixes an oops in the error path of 'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'. If
anything after 'uif_init()' fails, we get an oops in 'cancel_pending()'. The
reason is that 'uif_close()' drops the last reference count for 'ubi-&gt;dev' and
whole 'struct ubi_device' is freed. And then
'ubi_wl_close()'-&gt;'cancel_pending()' tries to access the 'ubi' pointer and
problems begin.

Note, in 'ubi_detach_mtd_dev()' function we get a device reference to
work-around this issue. Do the same in the error path of
'ubi_attach_mtd_dev()'.

Kill the UBI 'debug_tsts' module parameter and switch to debugfs. Create
per-test mode files there. E.g., to enable bit-flips emulation you may just do:

echo 1 &gt; /sys/kernel/debug/ubi/ubi0/tst_emulate_bitflips
