UBI: add ubi_leb_map interface
The idea of this interface belongs to Adrian Hunter. The interface is extremely useful when one has to have a guarantee that an LEB will contain all 0xFFs even in case of an unclean reboot. UBI does have an 'ubi_leb_erase()' call which may do this, but it is stupid and ineffecient, because it flushes whole queue. I should be re-worked to just be a pair of unmap, map calls. The user of the interfaci is UBIFS at the moment. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
