Subject[81/98] UBI: fix memory leak in update path
2.6.32-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

commit ebddd63b74dcf1cb676d14328d5852f1fee19a8a upstream.

When truncating an UBI volume, UBI should allocates a PEB-sized
buffer but does not release it, which leads to memory leaks.
This patch fixes the issue.
