Zhihao Cheng 90e0be5614 ubi: fastmap: Fix lapsed wear leveling for first 64 PEBs
The anchor PEB must be picked from first 64 PEBs, these PEBs could have
large erase counter greater than other PEBs especially when free space
is nearly running out.
The ubi_update_fastmap will be called as long as pool/wl_pool is empty,
old anchor PEB is erased when updating fastmap. Given an UBI device with
N PEBs, free PEBs is nearly running out and pool will be filled with 1
PEB every time ubi_update_fastmap invoked. So t=N/POOL_SIZE[1]/64 means
that in worst case the erase counter of first 64 PEBs is t times greater
than other PEBs in theory.
After running fsstress for 24h, the erase counter statistics for two UBI
devices shown as follow(CONFIG_MTD_UBI_WL_THRESHOLD=128):

The key point is reducing fastmap updating frequency by enlarging
POOL_SIZE, so let UBI reserve ubi->fm_pool.max_size PEBs during
attaching. Then POOL_SIZE will become ubi->fm_pool.max_size/2 even
in free space running out case.
Given an UBI device with 8192 PEBs(16384\8192\4096 is common
large-capacity flash), t=8192/128/64=1. The fastmap updating will
happen in either wl_pool or pool is empty, so setting fm_pool_rsv_cnt
as ubi->fm_pool.max_size can fill wl_pool in full state.

After pool reservation, running fsstress for 24h:

The difference of erase counter between first 64 PEBs and others is
under WL_FREE_MAX_DIFF(2*UBI_WL_THRESHOLD=2*128=256).
  Device A: 34056 - 33801 = 255
  Device B: 2460 - 2205 = 255

Next patch will add a switch to control whether UBI needs to reserve
PEBs for filling pool.
