ubifs: Fix unattached inode when powercut happens in creating
For selinux or encryption scenarios, UBIFS could become inconsistent while creating new files in powercut case. Encryption/selinux related xattrs will be created before creating file dentry, which makes creation process is not atomic, details are shown as: Encryption case: ubifs_create ubifs_new_inode fscrypt_set_context ubifs_xattr_set create_xattr ubifs_jnl_update // Disk: xentry xinode inode(LAST_OF_NODE_GROUP) >> power cut << ubifs_jnl_update // Disk: dentry inode parent_inode(LAST_OF_NODE_GROUP) Selinux case: ubifs_create ubifs_new_inode ubifs_init_security security_inode_init_security ubifs_xattr_set create_xattr ubifs_jnl_update // Disk: xentry xinode inode(LAST_OF_NODE_GROUP) >> power cut << ubifs_jnl_update // Disk: dentry inode parent_inode(LAST_OF_NODE_GROUP) Above process will make chk_fs failed in next mounting: UBIFS error (ubi0:0 pid 7995): dbg_check_filesystem [ubifs]: inode 66 nlink is 1, but calculated nlink is 0 Fix it by allocating orphan inode for each non-xattr file creation, then removing orphan list in journal writing process, which ensures that both xattr and dentry be effective in atomic when powercut happens.
