Subject: [PATCH 2/7] [RFC] UBI: Add checkpoint struct to ubi_device

struct ubi_checkpoint describes the currently used checkpoint.
Upon checkpoint recreation all currently used PEBs will be returned
to the wl subsystem.

struct ubi_cp_pool describes a checkpoint pool.
All PEBs within this pool have to be rescanned after reading the checkpoint.
The pools are needed to handle the three types of PEBs which can be obtained
from the wl subsystem.
Longterm, shortterm and unknown.
