3.16.7-ckt19 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <richard at nod.at>

commit 281fda27673f833a01d516658a64d22a32c8e072 upstream.

Make sure that data_size is less than LEB size.
Otherwise a handcrafted UBI image is able to trigger
an out of bounds memory access in ubi_compare_lebs().

[ luis: backported to 3.16:
  - no ubi_device parameter for the ubi_err() macro in 3.16 ]
