Daniel Santos a788c52727 jffs2: Fix use of uninitialized delayed_work, lockdep breakage
jffs2_sync_fs makes the assumption that if CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_WRITEBUFFER
is defined then a write buffer is available and has been initialized.
However, this does is not the case when the mtd device has no
out-of-band buffer:

int jffs2_nand_flash_setup(struct jffs2_sb_info *c)
{
        if (!c->mtd->oobsize)
                return 0;
...

The resulting call to cancel_delayed_work_sync passing a uninitialized
(but zeroed) delayed_work struct forces lockdep to become disabled.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
