UBIFS bails out early from try_read_node() when it doesn't have to check
the CRC. Still the node hash has to be checked, otherwise wrong data
could be sneaked into the FS. Fix this by not bailing out early and
always checking the node hash.

Good catch!

I think we need another UBIFS self-check to catch such issues.
How about adding a marker to each in-memory node/page up on checking?
That way a self-check can walk UBIFS in-memory data structures and check
whether everything has the marker set. If not, we found a bug in the auth
code.

Thanks,
