Merge tag 'upstream-3.6-rc5' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubi
Pull ubi fix from Artem Bityutskiy:
"A single small fix for memory deallocation: we allocated memory using
'kmem_cache_alloc()' but were freeing it using 'kfree()' in some
cases. Now we fix this by using 'kmem_cache_free()' instead."
* tag 'upstream-3.6-rc5' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-ubi:
