ubifs: Re-statistic cleaned znode count if commit failed

Dirty znodes will be written on flash in committing process with
following states:

	      process A			|  znode state
------------------------------------------------------
do_commit				| DIRTY_ZNODE
  ubifs_tnc_start_commit		| DIRTY_ZNODE
   get_znodes_to_commit			| DIRTY_ZNODE | COW_ZNODE
    layout_commit			| DIRTY_ZNODE | COW_ZNODE
     fill_gap                           | 0
  write master				| 0 or OBSOLETE_ZNODE

	      process B			|  znode state
------------------------------------------------------
do_commit				| DIRTY_ZNODE[1]
  ubifs_tnc_start_commit		| DIRTY_ZNODE
   get_znodes_to_commit			| DIRTY_ZNODE | COW_ZNODE
  ubifs_tnc_end_commit			| DIRTY_ZNODE | COW_ZNODE
   write_index                          | 0
  write master				| 0 or OBSOLETE_ZNODE[2] or
					| DIRTY_ZNODE[3]

[1] znode is dirtied without concurrent committing process
[2] znode is copied up (re-dirtied by other process) before cleaned
    up in committing process
[3] znode is re-dirtied after cleaned up in committing process

Currently, the clean znode count is updated in free_obsolete_znodes(),
which is called only in normal path. If do_commit failed, clean znode
count won't be updated, which triggers a failure ubifs assertion[4] in
ubifs_tnc_close():
 ubifs_assert_failed [ubifs]: UBIFS assert failed: freed == n

[4] Commit 380347e9 ("UBIFS: Add an assertion for clean_zn_cnt").

Fix it by re-statisticing cleaned znode count in tnc_destroy_cnext().
