SubjectRe: [BUG] reproducable ubifs reboot assert and corruption

Did some experiments last week to see if I could trigger the bug with
full debug messages enabled. Biggest problem is that I don't have
non-volatile memory available, serial logging slows it down too much to
trigger the bug, and the reboot tends to shut down any attempt to
offload the log to capture the relevant messages.

That being said, I was able to trigger the bug with the following:

[root@buildroot ~]# (sleep 5 ; while ! mount -o remount,ro /mnt ; do true ; done ; echo remount > /dev/kmsg ; sleep 5 ; echo reboot > /dev/kmsg ; reboot ) &
[2] 564
[root@buildroot ~]# fsstress -p 10 -n 10 -X -d /mnt/fsstress -l 0

In my log I can see the "remount" message and 100ms later I can see the
first ubifs assert. I've attached the relevant portion of the logs
below from the first time I see LEB 44 mentioned through the asserts.
I've put the logs on the web due to concerns of flooding the mailing
list with 100's of kB in attachments.

ubi_corruption.txt is the kernel log
afterwards.txt is the console log with the ensuing issue with ubifs

I also have logs of the recovery process in the Linux kernel later on,
(still takes 2 mounts), an image of the MTD device, and would be happy
to try anything or enable any additional debug messages.

Thanks for taking a look. I'm reading everything I can find about ubifs
to see if I can make some headway into understanding what is going on
but filesytems are definitely not my forte :).

Cheers,
Andrew Ruder
