UBIFS: mark unused key objects as invalid
When scanning the flash, UBIFS builds a list of flash nodes of type 'struct ubifs_scan_node'. Each scanned node has a 'snod->key' field. This field is valid for most of the nodes, but invalid for some node type, e.g., truncation nodes. It is safer to explicitly initialize such keys to something invalid, rather than leaving them initialized to all zeros, which has key type of UBIFS_INO_KEY. This patch introduces new "fake" key type UBIFS_INVALID_KEY and initializes unused 'snod->key' objects to this type. It also adds debugging assertions in the TNC code to make sure no one ever tries to look these nodes up in the TNC. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
