Subject: [PATCH] UDF: fix anchor point detection

According to ECMA 167 rev. 3 (see 3/8.4.2.1), Anchor Volume
Descriptor Pointer should be recorded at two or more anchor 
points located at sectors 256, N, N - 256, where N - is a 
largest logical sector number at volume space.

So we should always try to detect N on UDF volume before 
trying to find Anchor Volume Descriptor (i.e. calling to 
udf_find_anchor()).

That said, all this patch does is updates the s_last_block 
even if the udf_vrs() returns positive value.

Originally written and tested by Yuri Per, ported on latest 
mainline by me.
