Subject: [PATCH 3.2 016/164] UBI: fix check for "too many bytes"

3.2.70-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Brian Norris <computersforpeace@...il.com>

commit 299d0c5b27346a77a0777c993372bf8777d4f2e5 upstream.

The comparison from the previous line seems to have been erroneously
(partially) copied-and-pasted onto the next. The second line should be
checking req.bytes, not req.lnum.

Coverity CID #139400
