Matthew L. Creech 9f58d3503a UBIFS: add a superblock flag for free space fix-up
The 'space_fixup' flag can be set in the superblock of a new filesystem by
mkfs.ubifs to indicate that any eraseblocks with free space remaining should be
fixed-up the first time it's mounted (after which the flag is un-set). This
means that the UBIFS image has been flashed by a "dumb" flasher and the free
space has been actually programmed (writing all 0xFFs), so this free space
cannot be used. UBIFS fixes the free space up by re-writing the contents of all
LEBs with free space using the atomic LEB change UBI operation.

Artem: improved commit message, add some more commentaries to the code.

Artem Bityutskiy cc64f774b4 UBIFS: use __packed instead of __attribute__((packed))
There was an attempt to standartize various "__attribute__" and
other macros in order to have potentially portable and more
consistent code, see commit 82ddcb0405.

Note, that commit refers Rober Love's blog post, but the URL
is broken, the valid URL is:
http://blog.rlove.org/2005/10/with-little-help-from-your-compiler.html

Moreover, nowadays checkpatch.pl warns about using
__attribute__((packed)):

"WARNING: __packed is preferred over __attribute__((packed))"

It is not a big deal for UBIFS to use __packed, so let's do it.

Artem Bityutskiy d6d140097b UBIFS: define journal head numbers in ubifs-media.h
The journal head names and numbers are part of the UBIFS format, so
they should be in the ubifs-media.h.

Artem Bityutskiy 963f0cf6d1 UBIFS: add R/O compatibility
Now UBIFS is supported by u-boot. If we ever decide to change the
media format, then people will have to upgrade their u-boots to
mount new format images. However, very often it is possible to
preserve R/O forward-compatibility, even though the write
forward-compatibility is not preserved.

This patch introduces a new super-block field which stores the
R/O compatibility version.

Artem Bityutskiy 062e4fee44 UBIFS: slight compression optimization
If data does not compress, it is better to leave it uncompressed
because we'll read it faster then. So do not compress data if we
save less than 64 bytes.

Artem Bityutskiy a5cb562d69 UBIFS: make minimum fanout 3
UBIFS does not really work correctly when fanout is 2,
because of the way we manage the indexing tree. It may
just become a list and UBIFS screws up.

Artem Bityutskiy b364b41aeb UBIFS: reserve more space for index
At the moment UBIFS reserves twice old index size space for the
index. But this is not enough in some cases, because if the indexing
node are very fragmented and there are many small gaps, while the
dirty index has big znodes - in-the-gaps method would fail.

Thus, reserve trise as more, in which case we are guaranteed that
we can commit in any case.
