[PATCH 01/15] UBI: Fastmap: Relax EBA selfcheck

[Richard Weinberger]

It is allowed that fastmap knows an EBA table entry
as unmapped while scanning would know this entry as
mapped.
Fastmap knows the current EBA table and scannning
reconstructs it. This case can happen if the fastmap
gets written while the entry is alredy unmapped but the
PEB has not been erased.
If the UBI device gets detached at this moment, scanning
may detect this EBA entry as mapped.
(Of course the upper layer, UBIFS, knows this LEB is no longer
used)
