commit b54f47c8bcfc5f766bf13ec31bd7dd1d4726d33b upstream.

Using UBI on m25p80 can give messages like:

    UBI error: io_init: bad write buffer size 0 for 1 min. I/O unit

We need to initialize writebufsize; I think "page_size" is the correct
"bufsize", although I'm not sure. Comments?

commit fcc44a07dae0af16e84e93425fc8afe642ddc603 upstream.

The writebufsize concept was introduce by commit
"0e4ca7e mtd: add writebufsize field to mtd_info struct" and it represents
the maximum amount of data the device writes to the media at a time. This is
an important parameter for UBIFS which is used during recovery and which
basically defines how big a corruption caused by a power cut can be.

Set writebufsize to 4 because this drivers writes at max 4 bytes at a time.

The writebufsize concept was introduce by commit

an important parameter for UBIFS which is used during recovery and which

However, we forgot to set this parameter for block2mtd. Set it to PAGE_SIZE
because this is actually the amount of data we write at a time.

commit 7eb3aa65853e1b223bfc786b023b702018cb76c0 upstream.

The 'find_wl_entry()' function expects the maximum difference as the second
argument, not the maximum absolute value. So the "unknown" eraseblock picking
was incorrect, as Shmulik Ladkani spotted. This patch fixes the issue.

commit a29852be492d61001d86c6ebf5fff9b93d7b4be9 upstream.

Two bad things can happen in ubi_scan():
1. If kmem_cache_create() fails we jump to out_si and call
   ubi_scan_destroy_si() which calls kmem_cache_destroy().
   But si-&gt;scan_leb_slab is NULL.
2. If process_eb() fails we jump to out_vidh, call
   kmem_cache_destroy() and ubi_scan_destroy_si() which calls
   again kmem_cache_destroy().

commit 72f0d453d81d35087b1d3ad7c8285628c2be6e1d upstream.

Patch ab50ff684707031ed4bad2fdd313208ae392e5bb broke UBI debugging messages:
before that commit when UBI debugging was enabled, users saw few useful
debugging messages after attaching an MTD device. However, that patch turned
'dbg_msg()' into 'pr_debug()', so to enable the debugging messages users have
to enable them first via /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control, which is
very impractical.

This commit makes 'dbg_msg()' to use 'printk()' instead of 'pr_debug()', just
as it was before the breakage.

commit 4a59c797a18917a5cf3ff7ade296b46134d91e6a upstream.

Currently it's possible to create a volume without a name. E.g:
ubimkvol -n 32 -s 2MiB -t static /dev/ubi0 -N ""

After that vtbl_check() will always fail because it does not permit
empty strings.

commit e57e0d8e818512047fe379157c3f77f1b9fabffb upstream.

When we fail to erase a PEB, we free the corresponding erase entry object,
but then re-schedule this object if the error code was something like -EAGAIN.
Obviously, it is a bug to use the object after we have freed it.
