'whiteout_ui->data' will be freed twice if space budget fail for
rename whiteout operation as following process:
rename_whiteout
dev = kmalloc
whiteout_ui->data = dev
kfree(whiteout_ui->data) // Free first time
iput(whiteout)
ubifs_free_inode
kfree(ui->data) // Double free!

The buggy address belongs to the object at ffff88810238bed8 which
belongs to the cache kmalloc-8 of size 8
==================================================================
Let ubifs_free_inode() free 'whiteout_ui->data'. BTW, delete unused
assignment 'whiteout_ui->data_len = 0', process 'ubifs_evict_inode()
-> ubifs_jnl_delete_inode() -> ubifs_jnl_write_inode()' doesn't need it
(because 'inc_nlink(whiteout)' won't be excuted by 'goto out_release',
and the nlink of whiteout inode is 0).
Fixes: 9e0a1fff8db56ea ("ubifs: Implement RENAME_WHITEOUT")
