[PATCH] UBIFS: fix assertion

From: Artem Bityutskiy
Date: Sun Aug 31 2008 - 09:17:30 EST


From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@xxxxxxxxx>

The assertion was incorrect, because it did not take into
account free space.

This patch also amends the comments correspondingly, and
cleans them up a little.
