> ubifs_node_calc_hash() can fail when authentication is enabled and the
> crypto operation fails.  Five calls ignore the return value and use the
> uninitialized stack buffer as the node hash: replay_bud() stores it in
> the replay entry, make_idx_node() and write_index() copy it into the
> parent branch or the index root, and create_default_filesystem() copies
> it into an index branch and into the master node.  Verifying those nodes
> later then fails with a hash mismatch.
> 
> Propagate the error from all five call sites.

> Fixes: 104115a3eb54 ("ubifs: Add hashes and HMACs to default filesystem")
