Al Viro pointed me to the fact that '->readdir()' and '->llseek()' have no mutual exclusion, which means the 'ubifs_dir_llseek()' can be run while we are in the middle of 'ubifs_readdir()'. This means that 'file->private_data' can be freed while 'ubifs_readdir()' uses it, and this is a very bad bug: not only 'ubifs_readdir()' can return garbage, but this may corrupt memory and lead to all kinds of problems like crashes an security holes. This patch fixes the problem by using the 'file->f_version' field, which '->llseek()' always unconditionally sets to zero. We set it to 1 in 'ubifs_readdir()' and whenever we detect that it became 0, we know there was a seek and it is time to clear the state saved in 'file->private_data'. I tested this patch by writing a user-space program which runds readdir and seek in parallell. I could easily crash the kernel without these patches, but could not crash it with these patches.
