  UBIFS: fix mounting problems after power cuts (2012-10-26 16:26:44 +0300)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Two patches which fix a problem reported by several people in the past,
but only fixed now because no one gave enough material for debugging.

Anyway, these fix the problem that sometimes after a power cut the
file-system is not mountable with the following symptom:

        grab_empty_leb: could not find an empty LEB

The fixes make the file-system mountable again.

      UBIFS: introduce categorized lprops counter
