Subject: Re: [PATCH] ubifs: Move update of cnt in get_znodes_to_commit

Well, from my own view, I prefer the orignal style because it looks more 
readable.
   c->cnext = find_first_dirty(c->zroot.znode);
   znode = c->enext = c->cnext;
   cnt += 1;  // We get the first one.

   while (1) {
     cnext = find_next_dirty(znode);
     znode = cnext;
     cnt += 1; // We get another one.
   }

After applying this patch, the intention of 'cnt' updating is not so 
obviously. However, it does reduce the duplicated codes. I will add an 
acked-by to let Richard determine whether or not apply this patch.
