This commit re-names all functions which dump something from "dbg_dump_*()" to
"ubifs_dump_*()". This is done for consistency with UBI and because this way it
will be more logical once we remove the debugging sompilation option.

In case of errors we almost always need the stack dump - it makes no sense
to compile it out. Remove the 'dbg_dump_stack()' function completely.

Before commit 56e46742e8 we have had locking
around all printing macros and we could use static buffers for creating
key strings and printing them. However, now we do not have that locking and
we cannot use static buffers. This commit removes the old DBGKEY() macros
and introduces few new helper macros for printing debugging messages plus
a key at the end. Thankfully, all the messages are already structures in
a way that the key is printed in the end.

UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' in case of write
failure because it forgets to free the 'struct ubifs_dent_node *dent' object.
Although the object is small, the alignment can make it large - e.g., 2KiB
if the min. I/O unit is 2KiB.

Currently when UBIFS fills up the current bud (which is the last in the journal
head) and switches to the next bud, it first writes the log reference node for
the next bud and only after this synchronizes the write-buffer of the previous
bud. This is not a big deal, but an unclean power cut may lead to a situation
when we have corruption in a next-to-last bud, although it is much more logical
that we have to have corruption only in the last bud.
This patch also removes write-buffer synchronization from
'ubifs_wbuf_seek_nolock()' because this is not needed anymore (we synchronize
the write-buffer explicitly everywhere now) and also because this is just
prone to various errors.

This patch improves the 'dbg_check_space_info()' function which checks
whether the amount of space before re-mounting and after re-mounting
is the same (remounting from R/O to R/W modes and vice-versa).
The problem is that 'dbg_check_space_info()' does not save the budgeting
information before re-mounting, so when an error is reported, we do not
know why the amount of free space changed.
This patches makes the following changes:
1. Teaches 'dbg_dump_budg()' function to accept a 'struct ubifs_budg_info'
argument and print out the this argument. This way we may ask it to
print any saved budgeting info, no only the current one.
2. Accordingly changes all the callers of 'dbg_dump_budg()' to comply with
the changed interface.
3. Introduce a 'saved_bi' (saved budgeting info) field to
'struct ubifs_debug_info' and save the budgeting info before re-mounting
there.
4. Change 'dbg_check_space_info()' and make it print both old and new
budgeting information.
5. Additionally, save 'c->igx_gc_cnt' and print it if and error happens. This
value contributes to the amount of free space, so we have to print it.

The current 'dbg_dump_budg()' calling convention is that the
'c->space_lock' spinlock is held. However, none of the callers
actually use it from contects which have 'c->space_lock' locked,
so all callers have to explicitely lock and unlock the spinlock.
This is not very sensible convention. This patch changes it and
makes 'dbg_dump_budg()' lock the spinlock instead of imposing this
to the callers. This simplifies the code a little.

This patch implements Artem's suggested fix: fall back to a
mutex-protected static buffer, allocated at mount time. I tested it
by forcing execution down the failure path, and didn't see any ill
effects.
Artem: massaged the patch a little, improved it so that we'd not
allocate the write reserve buffer when we are in R/O mode.

Commit 2fde99cb55 "UBIFS: mark VFS SB RO too"
introduced regression. This commit made UBIFS set the 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the
VFS superblock when it switches to R/O mode due to an error. This was done
to make VFS show the R/O UBIFS flag in /proc/mounts.
However, several places in UBIFS relied on the 'MS_RDONLY' flag and assume this
flag can only change when we re-mount. For example, 'ubifs_put_super()'.
This patch introduces new UBIFS flag - 'c->ro_mount' which changes only when
we re-mount, and preserves the way UBIFS was originally mounted (R/W or R/O).
This allows us to de-initialize UBIFS cleanly in 'ubifs_put_super()'.
This patch also changes all 'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)' assertions to
'ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media && !c->ro_mount)', because we never should write
anything if the FS was mounter R/O.
All the places where we test for 'MS_RDONLY' flag in the VFS SB were changed
and now we test the 'c->ro_mount' flag instead, because it preserves the
original UBIFS mount type, unlike the 'MS_RDONLY' flag.

The R/O state may have various reasons:
1. The UBI volume is R/O
2. The FS is mounted R/O
3. The FS switched to R/O mode because of an error
However, in UBIFS we have only one variable which represents cases
1 and 3 - 'c->ro_media'. Indeed, we set this to 1 if we switch to
R/O mode due to an error, and then we test it in many places to
make sure that we stop writing as soon as the error happens.
But this is very unclean. One consequence of this, for example, is
that in 'ubifs_remount_fs()' we use 'c->ro_media' to check whether
we are in R/O mode because on an error, and we print a message
in this case. However, if we are in R/O mode because the media
is R/O, our message is bogus.
This patch introduces new flag - 'c->ro_error' which is set when
we switch to R/O mode because of an error. It also changes all
"if (c->ro_media)" checks to "if (c->ro_error)" checks, because
this is what the checks actually mean. We do not need to check
for 'c->ro_media' because if the UBI volume is in R/O mode, we
do not allow R/W mounting, and now writes can happen. This is
guaranteed by VFS. But it is good to double-check this, so this
patch also adds many "ubifs_assert(!c->ro_media)" checks.
In the 'ubifs_remount_fs()' function this patch makes a bit more
changes - it fixes the error messages as well.

These are mostly long lines and wrong indentation warning
fixes. But also there are two volatile variables and
checkpatch.pl complains about them:
WARNING: Use of volatile is usually wrong: see Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt
+ volatile int gc_seq;
WARNING: Use of volatile is usually wrong: see Documentation/volatile-considered-harmful.txt

Well, we anyway use smp_wmb() for c->gc_seq and c->gced_lnum, so
these 'volatile' modifiers can be just dropped.

Xattr code has not been tested for a while and there were
serveral bugs. One of them is using wrong inode in
'ubifs_jnl_change_xattr()'. The other is a deadlock in
'ubifs_setxattr()': the i_mutex is locked in
'cap_inode_need_killpriv()' path, so deadlock happens when
'ubifs_setxattr()' tries to lock it again.

Every time anything is deleted, UBIFS writes the deletion inode
node twice - once in 'ubifs_jnl_update()' and the second time in
'ubifs_jnl_write_inode()'. However, the second write is not needed
if no commit happened after 'ubifs_jnl_update()'. This patch
checks that condition and avoids writing the deletion inode for
the second time.
