Actually, there is a jffs2_build_filesystem() function which walks all 
inodes with nlink == 0 and pretends to dispense with them. I believe 
that function is the right place to fix. I ganced at it, and it appeared 
to be thet it calls jffs2_mark_node_obsolete() for all nodes of this 
inode. jffs2_mark_node_obsolete() is a huge and fearsom monster-function 
which may do something wrong.
