> Write buffers use a kmalloc()'ed buffer, they can leak
> up to seven bytes of kernel memory to flash if writes are not
> aligned.
> So use ubifs_pad() to fill these gaps with padding bytes.
> This was never a problem while scanning because the scanner logic
> manually aligns node lengths and skips over these gaps.
