JFFS2 BUG()

[Felix Radensky]

Hi,

I've hit a BUG() in JFFS2 as described below. The JFSS2 partition
is 250MB on 1GB Samsung NAND flash.  My kernel is 2.6.27,
running on AMCC 405EXr CPU (powerpc). The problem is not
easily reproducible. It is possible that partition was rather full when
BUG() was hit. Very similar problem  was reported to the list a year
ago, but was not resolved, see

http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2008-April/021454.html

Can the fix proposed by previous reporter solve the problem ?

I'm getting the following error message:

Data CRC 97eaebe7 != calculated CRC b76accbf for node at 07633a58
