ubifs: ubifs_dump_inode: Fix dumping field bulk_read
UBI: Fix static volume checks when Fastmap is used
UBI: Set free_count to zero before walking through erase list
UBI: Silence an unintialized variable warning
UBI: Clean up return in ubi_remove_volume()
UBI: Modify wrong comment in ubi_leb_map function.
UBI: Don't read back all data in ubi_eba_copy_leb()
UBI: Add ro-mode sysfs attribute
Ezequiel reported that he's facing UBI going into read-only
mode after power cut. It turned out that this behavior happens
only when updating a static volume is interrupted and Fastmap is
used.
A possible trace can look like:

UBI checks static volumes for data consistency and reads the
whole volume upon first open. If the volume is found erroneous
users of UBI cannot read from it, but another volume update is
possible to fix it. The check is performed by running
ubi_eba_read_leb() on every allocated LEB of the volume.
For static volumes ubi_eba_read_leb() computes the checksum of all
data stored in a LEB. To verify the computed checksum it has to read
the LEB's volume header which stores the original checksum.
If the volume header is not found UBI treats this as fatal internal
error and switches to RO mode. If the UBI device was attached via a
full scan the assumption is correct, the volume header has to be
present as it had to be there while scanning to get known as mapped.
If the attach operation happened via Fastmap the assumption is no
longer correct. When attaching via Fastmap UBI learns the mapping
table from Fastmap's snapshot of the system state and not via a full
scan. It can happen that a LEB got unmapped after a Fastmap was
written to the flash. Then UBI can learn the LEB still as mapped and
accessing it returns only 0xFF bytes. As UBI is not a FTL it is
allowed to have mappings to empty PEBs, it assumes that the layer
above takes care of LEB accounting and referencing.
UBIFS does so using the LEB property tree (LPT).
For static volumes UBI blindly assumes that all LEBs are present and
therefore special actions have to be taken.
The described situation can happen when updating a static volume is
interrupted, either by a user or a power cut.
The volume update code first unmaps all LEBs of a volume and then
writes LEB by LEB. If the sequence of operations is interrupted UBI
detects this either by the absence of LEBs, no volume header present
at scan time, or corrupted payload, detected via checksum.
In the Fastmap case the former method won't trigger as no scan
happened and UBI automatically thinks all LEBs are present.
Only by reading data from a LEB it detects that the volume header is
missing and incorrectly treats this as fatal error.
To deal with the situation ubi_eba_read_leb() from now on checks
whether we attached via Fastmap and handles the absence of a
volume header like a data corruption error.
This way interrupted static volume updates will correctly get detected
also when Fastmap is used.

Set free_count to zero before walking through ai->erase list
in wl_init().
Found in U-Boot as U-Boot has no workqueue/threads, it immediately
calls erase_worker(), which increase for each erased block
free_count. Without this patch, free_count gets after
this initialized to zero in wl_init(), so the free_count
variable always has the maybe wrong value 0 in U-Boot.

Drop this paranoia check from the old days.
If our MTD driver or the flash is so bad that we even cannot
trust it to write data we have bigger problems.
If one really does not trust the flash and wants write-verify
she can enable UBI io checks using debugfs.

On serious situations, UBI may detect serious device corruption,
and switch to read-only mode to protect the data and allow debugging.
This commit exposes this ro-mode on sysfs, so it can be obtained

wear_leveling_worker() currently unconditionally puts a PEB on erase in
the error case even it just been taken from the free_list and never
used.
In case the PEB was never used it can be put back on the free list
saving a precious erase cycle.
v1…v2:
- to_leb_clean -> dst_leb_clean
- use the nested option for ensure_wear_leveling()
- do_sync_erase() can't go -ENOMEM so we can just go into
RO-mode now.

If __erase_worker() fails to erase the EB and schedule_erase() fails as
well to do anything about it then we go RO. But that is not a reason to
leak the e argument here. Therefore clean up e.

Since fastmap we gained do_sync_erase(). This function can return an error
and its error handling isn't obvious. First the memory allocation for
struct ubi_work can fail and as such struct ubi_wl_entry is leaked.
However if the memory allocation succeeds then the tail function takes
care of the struct ubi_wl_entry. A free here could result in a double
free.
To make the error handling simpler, I split the tail function into one
piece which does the work and another which frees the struct ubi_work
which is passed as argument. As result do_sync_erase() can keep the
struct on stack and we get rid of one error source.

We are checking dfs_rootdir for error value or NULL. But in the
conditional ternary operator we returned -ENODEV if dfs_rootdir contains
an error value and returned PTR_ERR(dfs_rootdir) if dfs_rootdir is NULL.
So in the case of dfs_rootdir being NULL we actually assigned 0 to err
and returned it to the caller implying a success.
Lets return -ENODEV when dfs_rootdir is NULL else return
PTR_ERR(dfs_rootdir).
