[PATCH] ubi: fastmap: Check each mapping only once

From: Martin Kepplinger
Date: Mon Nov 26 2018 - 05:44:06 EST


From: Richard Weinberger <richard@xxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 34653fd8c46e771585fce5975e4243f8fd401914 ]

This commit got merged along with commit 781932375ffc
("ubi: fastmap: Correctly handle interrupted erasures in EBA") upstream but
only the latter has been applied to stable v4.14.54 as commit a23cf10d9abb.
This resulted in a performance regression. Startup on i.MX platforms is
delayed for up to a few seconds depending on the platform.
This fixes ubi fastmap to be of the same performance as it has been before
said fastmap changes.

Fixes: a23cf10d9abb ("ubi: fastmap: Correctly handle interrupted erasures in EBA")

Richard, although this fixes a major slowdown regression in -stable, do you
consider this "stable" too?

This applies and is tested only for the 4.14 stable tree. It seems to be
equally relevant for 4.9 and 4.4 though.

thanks
martin
