This is bad because the rest of the code should not depend on it,

The TNC mutex is unlocked prematurely when reading leaf nodes
with non-hashed keys. This is unsafe because the node may be
moved by garbage collection and the eraseblock unmapped, although
that has never actually happened during stress testing.
This patch fixes the flaw by detecting the race and retrying with
the TNC mutex locked.

Leaf-nodes that have a hashed key are stored in the
leaf-node-cache (LNC) which is protected by the TNC
mutex. Consequently, when reading a leaf node with
a hashed key (i.e. directory entries, xattr entries)
the TNC mutex is always required.

Always allow truncations to zero, even if budgeting thinks there
is no space. UBIFS reserves some space for deletions anyway.
Otherwise, the following happans:
1. create a file, and write as much as possible there, until ENOSPC
2. truncate the file, which fails with ENOSPC, which is not good.

Xattr code has not been tested for a while and there were
serveral bugs. One of them is using wrong inode in
'ubifs_jnl_change_xattr()'. The other is a deadlock in
'ubifs_setxattr()': the i_mutex is locked in
'cap_inode_need_killpriv()' path, so deadlock happens when
'ubifs_setxattr()' tries to lock it again.
Thanks to Zoltan Sogor for finding these bugs.

At the moment UBIFS reserves twice old index size space for the
index. But this is not enough in some cases, because if the indexing
node are very fragmented and there are many small gaps, while the
dirty index has big znodes - in-the-gaps method would fail.
Thus, reserve trise as more, in which case we are guaranteed that
we can commit in any case.

UBIFS aligns node lengths to 8, so budgeting has to do the
same. Well, direntry, inode, and page budgets are already
aligned, but not inode data budget (e.g., data in special
devices or symlinks). Do this for inode data as well.
Also, add corresponding debugging checks.

Every time anything is deleted, UBIFS writes the deletion inode
node twice - once in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' and the second time in
'ubifs_jnl_write_inode()'. However, the second write is not needed
if no commit happened after 'ubifs_jnl_update()'. This patch
checks that condition and avoids writing the deletion inode for
the second time.

Orphan inodes are deleted inodes which will disappear after FS
re-mount. There is not need to write orphan inodes back, because
they are not needed on the flash media.
So optimize orphans a little by not writing them back. Just mark
them as clean, free the budget, and report success to VFS.

We use ubifs_ro_mode() quite a lot, and not in fast-path, so
there is no reason to blow the code up by having it inlined.
Also, we usually want R/O mode change to be seen to other
CPUs as soon as possible, so when we make this a function
call, we will automatically have a memory barrier.

UBI transparently handles write errors by automatically copying
and remapping the affected eraseblock. If UBI is unable to do
that, for example its pool of eraseblocks reserved for bad block
handling is empty, then the error is propagated to UBIFS. UBIFS
must protect the media from falling into an inconsistent state
by immediately switching to read-only mode. In the case of log
updates, this was not being done.

Although the inode is marked as clean when it is being deleted,
it might stay and be used as orphan, and be marked as dirty.

The 'ubifs_release_dirty_inode_budget()' was buggy and incorrectly
freed the budget, which led to not freeing all dirty data budget.
This patch fixes that.
Also, this patch fixes ubifs_mkdir() which passed 1 in dirty_ino_d,
which makes no sense. Well, it is harmless though.
Also, add few more useful assertions. And improve few debugging
messages.
