ubifs: Fix reference count leak in ubifsumount



Original ubifs code was designed that after ubifs_umount() call it is
required to also call ubi_close_volume() which closes underlying UBI
volume. But U-Boot ubifs modification have not implemented it properly
which caused that ubifsumount command contains resource leak. It can be
observed by calling simple sequence of commands:

  => ubi part mtd2
  ubi0: attaching mtd2
  ...
  => ubifsmount ubi0
  => ubifsumount
  Unmounting UBIFS volume rootfs!
  => ubi detach
  ubi0 error: ubi_detach_mtd_dev: ubi0 reference count 1, destroy anyway
  ubi0: detaching mtd2
  ubi0: mtd2 is detached

Fix this issue by calling ubi_close_volume() and mutex_unlock() in
directly in ubifs_umount() function before freeing U-Boot's global
ubifs_sb. And remove duplicate calls of these two functions in remaining
places. Note that when ubifs_umount() is not called then during error
handling is still needed to call ubi_close_volume() and mutex_unlock.

With this change ubifsumount command does not throw that error anymore:

  => ubi part rootfs
  ubi0: attaching mtd2
  ...
  => ubifsmount ubi0
  => ubifsumount
  Unmounting UBIFS volume rootfs!
  => ubi detach
  ubi0: detaching mtd2
  ubi0: mtd2 is detached
