2.6.27-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know. ------------------ From: Massimo Cirillo commit bc8cec0dff072f1a45ce7f6b2c5234bb3411ac51 upstream. The function jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_setup() doesn't allocate the verify buffer if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is defined, so causing a kernel panic when that macro is enabled and the verify function is called. Similarly the jffs2_nor_wbuf_flash_cleanup() must free the buffer if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WBUF_VERIFY is enabled. The following patch fixes the problem. The following patch applies to 2.6.30 kernel.
