+         * We use a dirty hack here and zero out @c->freeable_cnt, because it
+         * affects the free space calculations, and UBIFS might not know about
+         * all freeable eraseblocks. Indeed, we know about freeable eraseblocks
+         * only when we read their lprops, and we do this only lazily, upon the
+         * need. So at any given point of time @c->freeable_cnt might be not
+         * exactly accurate.
+         *
+         * Just one example about the issue we hit when we did not zero
+         * @c->freeable_cnt.
+         * 1. The file-system is mounted R/O, c->freeable_cnt is %0. We save the
+         *    amount of free space in @d->saved_free
+         * 2. We re-mount R/W, which makes UBIFS to read the "lsave"
+         *    information from flash, where we cache LEBs from various
+         *    categories ('ubifs_remount_fs()' -> 'ubifs_lpt_init()'
+         *    -> 'lpt_init_wr()' -> 'read_lsave()' -> 'ubifs_lpt_lookup()'
+         *    -> 'ubifs_get_pnode()' -> 'update_cats()'
+         *    -> 'ubifs_add_to_cat()').
+         * 3. Lsave contains a freeable eraseblock, and @c->freeable_cnt
+         *    becomes %1.
+         * 4. We calculate the amount of free space when the re-mount is
+         *    finished in 'dbg_check_space_info()' and it does not match
+         *    @d->saved_free.
