Hmmm ... bit stuck then !?!

I've added some debug in ubi_eba_atomic_leb_change(), to simply show the values being passed to
crc32(), and the crc is being called several times with the same buff memory pointer and a size
of 2048 bytes.

But there's also a call to crc with a size of 122880 bytes, and that's when the oops occurs.

Is this size larger than the allocated buffer ?
