[PATCH] ubifs: fix host inode TNC offset when deleting an xattr

[Nan Lin <lin.nan@h3c.com>]

When ubifs_jnl_delete_xattr() deletes an extended attribute, it writes
a group of three nodes to the base head: the xent node, the xattr
inode node and the host inode node. The host inode node is actually
packed at xent_offs + aligned_xlen + UBIFS_INO_NODE_SZ, but the
position registered into TNC is computed backwards as
xent_offs + len - hlen. The two differ by the group tail padding,
ALIGN(hlen, 8) - hlen.

Whenever the host inode's data_len is not a multiple of 8, the offset
registered in TNC points 1 to 7 bytes past the real node header. The
wrong offset gets committed into the on-flash index, and on the next
mount read_znode() fails the offs & 7 alignment check, returns -EINVAL
and switches the filesystem to read-only mode, reporting
"bad indexing node ... error 2".

Which inodes are affected depends on data_len:
 - block/character devices always carry data_len = 4 and are always
   affected;
 - symlinks carry data_len = strlen(target) and are affected unless
   the target length happens to be a multiple of 8;
 - regular files, FIFOs and sockets carry data_len = 0 and are
   unaffected.

The bug reproduces by setting an xattr on a symlink with attr -Rs and
removing it with attr -Rr: after unmount and remount, readlink()
fails, the index node is rejected with error 2 (bad branch offset) and
the filesystem turns read-only.

Fix the offset computation by accumulating the group layout forward
instead of subtracting from the total length: register the host inode
at xent_offs + aligned_xlen + UBIFS_INO_NODE_SZ, which matches the
packed position exactly. The host node length hlen is already correct
and stays unchanged.
