Subject: [PATCH] ubi: ubi_wl_put_peb: Fix infinite loop when wear-leveling
 work failed
References: bsc#1012628
Patch-mainline: 6.2.5
Git-commit: 4d57a7333e26040f2b583983e1970d9d460e56b0

[ Upstream commit 4d57a7333e26040f2b583983e1970d9d460e56b0 ]

Following process will trigger an infinite loop in ubi_wl_put_peb():

	ubifs_bgt		ubi_bgt
ubifs_leb_unmap
  ubi_leb_unmap
    ubi_eba_unmap_leb
      ubi_wl_put_peb	wear_leveling_worker
                          e1 = rb_entry(rb_first(&ubi->used)
			  e2 = get_peb_for_wl(ubi)
			  ubi_io_read_vid_hdr  // return err (flash fault)
			  out_error:
			    ubi->move_from = ubi->move_to = NULL
			    wl_entry_destroy(ubi, e1)
			      ubi->lookuptbl[e->pnum] = NULL
      retry:
        e = ubi->lookuptbl[pnum];	// return NULL
	if (e == ubi->move_from) {	// NULL == NULL gets true
	  goto retry;			// infinite loop !!!

$ top
  PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM     COMMAND
  7676 root     20   0       0      0      0 R 100.0  0.0  ubifs_bgt0_0

Fix it by:
 1) Letting ubi_wl_put_peb() returns directly if wearl leveling entry has
    been removed from 'ubi->lookuptbl'.
 2) Using 'ubi->wl_lock' protecting wl entry deletion to preventing an
    use-after-free problem for wl entry in ubi_wl_put_peb().

Fetch a reproducer in [Link].
