------------------

From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxx>

commit c88ac00c5af70c2a0741da14b22cdcf8507ddd92 upstream.

This patch fixes UBIFS assertion warnings like:

UBIFS assert failed in ubifs_leb_unmap at 135 (pid 29365)
Pid: 29365, comm: integck Tainted: G I 2.6.37-ubi-2.6+ #34
Call Trace:
[<ffffffffa047c663>] ubifs_lpt_init+0x95e/0x9ee [ubifs]
[<ffffffffa04623a7>] ubifs_remount_fs+0x2c7/0x762 [ubifs]

[<ffffffff81107674>] sys_mount+0x83/0xbd

They happen when we re-mount from R/O mode to R/W mode. While
re-mounting, we write to the media, but we still have the c->ro_mount
flag set. The fix is very simple - just clear the flag before
starting re-mounting R/W.

These warnings are caused by the following commit:
2ef13294d29bcfb306e0d360f1b97f37b647b0c0

For -stable guys: this bug was introduced in 2.6.38, this is materieal
for 2.6.38-stable.
