Subject: [PATCH 3.16 091/306] ubi: Fix Fastmap's update_vol()

3.16.40-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@....at>

commit f7d11b33d4e8cedf19367c09b891bbc705163976 upstream.

Usually Fastmap is free to consider every PEB in one of the pools
as newer than the existing PEB. Since PEBs in a pool are by definition
newer than everything else.
But update_vol() missed the case that a pool can contain more than
one candidate.
