Oh yes.

In 'ubifs_add_snod()' we call call 'key_read(c, &ino->key, &snod->key)'
for truncation nodes. However, 'struct ubifs_trun_node' does not have
key, so we read something else, and may happen to succeed in TNC lookup
then.

I guess the 'ubifs_add_snod()' should be fixed. Then key for truncation
nodes will be zero, and TNC lookup wont's succeed for sure, but it is
safer still to avoid look up for anything but data/ino/dent/xent nodes,
I think, no?
