  UBIFS: remove invalid reference to list iterator variable (2012-07-20 10:27:25 +0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
* Added another debugfs knob for forcing UBIFS R/O mode without flushing caches
  or finishing commit or any other I/O operation. I've originally added this
  knob in order to reproduce the free space fixup bug (see c672793) on nandsim.
  Without this knob I would have to do real power-cuts, which would make
  debugging much harder. Then I've decided to keep this knob because it is also
  useful for UBIFS power-cut recovery end error-paths testing.
* Well-spotted fix from Julia. This bug did not cause real troubles for
  UBIFS, but nevertheless it could cause issues for someone trying to modify
  the orphans handling code. Kudos to coccinelle!
* Minor cleanups.
