[PATCH 2/2] jffs2: handle INO_STATE_CLEARING in jffs2_do_read_inode()

[Hou Tao <houtao1@xxxxxxxxxx>]

For inode that fails to be created midway, GC procedure may
try to GC its dnode, and in the following case BUG() will be
triggered:

CPU 0                       CPU 1
in jffs2_do_create()        in jffs2_garbage_collect_pass()

jffs2_write_dnode succeed
// for dirent
jffs2_reserve_space fail

			    inum = ic->ino
			    nlink = ic->pino_nlink (> 0)

iget_failed
  make_bad_inode
    remove_inode_hash
  iput
    jffs2_evict_inode
      jffs2_do_clear_inode
        jffs2_set_inocache_state(INO_STATE_CLEARING)

			    jffs2_gc_fetch_inode
			      jffs2_iget
			        // a new inode is created because
			        // the old inode had been unhashed
			        iget_locked
			      jffs2_do_read_inode
			        jffs2_get_ino_cache
				// assert BUG()
				f->inocache->state = INO_STATE_CLEARING

Fix it by waiting for its state changes to INO_STATE_CHECKEDABSENT.
