[JFFS2] Prevent list corruption when handling write errors
If a write error occurs, the affected block is placed on the bad_used_list. In the case that the write error occured when writing summary data the block was also being placed on the dirty_list, which caused list corruption and ultimately a soft lockup in jffs2_mark_node_obsolete. This fixes that. Signed-off-by: Adrian Hunter <ext-adrian.hunter@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com> Signed-off-by: David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
