Update of /home/cvs/mtd/fs/jffs2
In directory phoenix.infradead.org:/tmp/cvs-serv18719

Modified Files:
	nodemgmt.c 
Log Message:
Fix race in jffs2_mark_node_obsolete(). There was nothing preventing the
block from being erased and 'ref' from being freed before we even got
around to marking it obsolete and then trying to merge nodes.
