[PATCH 3.18 043/150] UBI: Fix double free after do_sync_erase()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@xxxxxx>

commit aa5ad3b6eb8feb2399a5d26c8fb0060561bb9534 upstream.

If the erase worker is unable to erase a PEB it will
free the ubi_wl_entry itself.
The failing ubi_wl_entry must not free()'d again after
do_sync_erase() returns.
