Subject: [RFC/PATCH] mtd: ubi: Free peb's synchronously for fastmap

At first mount it's possible that there are not enough free PEBs since there
are PEB's pending to be erased. In such scenario, fm_pool (which is the pool
from which user required PEBs are allocated) will be empty.
Try fixing the above described situation by synchronously performing pending
erase work, thus produce another free PEB.
