Petr Cvachoucek 3fea4d9d16 ubifs: Error path in ubifs_remount_rw() seems to wrongly free write buffers
it seems freeing the write buffers in the error path of the
ubifs_remount_rw() is wrong. It leads later to a kernel oops like this:

To reproduce the problem:

1. Filesystem initially mounted read-only, free space fixup flag set.

2. mount -o remount,rw <mountpoint>

3. it takes some time (free space fixup running)
    ... try to terminate running mount by CTRL-C
    ... does not respond, only after free space fixup is complete
    ... then "ubifs_remount_fs: cannot spawn "ubifs_bgt0_0", error -4"

4. mount -o remount,rw <mountpoint>
    ... now finished instantly (fixup already done).

5. Create file or just unmount the filesystem and we get the oops.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
