From: Zhihao Cheng <chengzhihao1@xxxxxxxxxx> commit 1b83ec057db16b4d0697dc21ef7a9743b6041f72 upstream. Make 'ui->data_len' aligned with 8 bytes before it is assigned to dirtied_ino_d. Since 8871d84c8f8b0c6b("ubifs: convert to fileattr") applied, 'setflags()' only affects regular files and directories, only xattr inode, symlink inode and special inode(pipe/char_dev/block_dev) have none- zero 'ui->data_len' field, so assertion '!(req->dirtied_ino_d & 7)' cannot fail in ubifs_budget_space(). To avoid assertion fails in future evolution(eg. setflags can operate special inodes), it's better to make dirtied_ino_d 8 bytes aligned, after all aligned size is still zero for regular files.
