    ubifs: Correctly initialize c->min_log_bytes · 377e208f
    Richard Weinberger authored
    Currently on a freshly mounted UBIFS, c->min_log_bytes is 0.
    This can lead to a log overrun and make commits fail.
    
    Recent kernels will report the following assert:
    UBIFS assert failed: c->lhead_lnum != c->ltail_lnum, in fs/ubifs/log.c:412
    
    c->min_log_bytes can have two states, 0 and c->leb_size.
    It controls how much bytes of the log area are reserved for non-bud
    nodes such as commit nodes.
    
    After a commit it has to be set to c->leb_size such that we have always
    enough space for a commit. While a commit runs it can be 0 to make the
    remaining bytes of the log available to writers.
    
    Having it set to 0 right after mount is wrong since no space for commits
    is reserved.
