[PATCH v3 09/12] ubifs: Fix read out-of-bounds in ubifs_wbuf_write_nolock()

Function ubifs_wbuf_write_nolock() may access buf out of bounds in
following process:

ubifs_wbuf_write_nolock():
  aligned_len = ALIGN(len, 8);   // Assume len = 4089, aligned_len = 4096
  if (aligned_len <= wbuf->avail) ... // Not satisfy
  if (wbuf->used) {
    ubifs_leb_write()  // Fill some data in avail wbuf
    len -= wbuf->avail;   // len is still not 8-bytes aligned
    aligned_len -= wbuf->avail;
  }
  n = aligned_len >> c->max_write_shift;
  if (n) {
    n <<= c->max_write_shift;
    err = ubifs_leb_write(c, wbuf->lnum, buf + written,
                          wbuf->offs, n);
    // n > len, read out of bounds less than 8(n-len) bytes
  }

Function ubifs_wbuf_write_nolock() accepts that parameter 'len' is not 8
bytes aligned, the 'len' represents the true length of buf (which is
allocated in 'ubifs_jnl_xxx', eg. ubifs_jnl_write_inode), so
ubifs_wbuf_write_nolock() must handle the length read from 'buf' carefully
to write leb safely.
