Subject: [PATCH 3.4 004/177] UBIFS: fix free log space calculation

From: Artem Bityutskiy <artem.bityutskiy@...ux.intel.com>

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

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


commit ba29e721eb2df6df8f33c1f248388bb037a47914 upstream.

Hu (hujianyang <hujianyang@...wei.com>) discovered an issue in the
'empty_log_bytes()' function, which calculates how many bytes are left in the
log:

"
If 'c->lhead_lnum + 1 == c->ltail_lnum' and 'c->lhead_offs == c->leb_size', 'h'
would equalent to 't' and 'empty_log_bytes()' would return 'c->log_bytes'
instead of 0.
"

At this point it is not clear what would be the consequences of this, and
whether this may lead to any problems, but this patch addresses the issue just
in case.
