This is part of a multipart patch to allow UBI to force the erasure of
particular logical eraseblock numbers. In this patch, the volume id and LEB
number are added to ubi_work data structure, and both are also passed as a
parameter to schedule erase to set it appropriately. Whenever ubi_wl_put_peb
is called, the lnum is also passed to be forwarded to schedule erase. Later,
a new ubi_sync_lnum will be added to execute immediately all work related to
that lnum.
This was tested by outputting the vol_id and lnum during the schedule of
erasure. The ubi thread was disabled and two ubifs drives on separate
partitions repeated changed a small number of LEBs. The ubi module was readded,
and all the erased LEBs, corresponding to the volumes, were added to the
schedule erase queue.

This patch adds the volume id to struct ubi_ainf_peb when scanning the LEBs at
startup. PEBs now added to the erase queue will know their original LEB number
and volume id, if available, and will be -1 otherwise (for instance, if the VID
header is unreadable).
This was tested by creating an ubi device with 3 volumes and disabiling the
ubi_thread's do_work functionality. The different ubi volumes were formatted
to ubifs and had files created and erased. The ubi modules was reloaded and
the list of LEB's added to the erased list was outputted, confirming the
volume ids and LEB numbers were appropriate.

Explicitly provide the first internal volume ID value in the comment for
UBI_INTERNAL_VOL_START. This allows developers who, when adding features
related to volume ids and observe unexpected very large volume ids, to grep
for the observed value in the source code and find out immediately that it is
expected behaviour.

The 'ubi_scan_erase_peb()' is used only in scan.c so can be static. Also

UBIFS leaks memory on error path in 'mount_ubifs()'. In case of failure in
'ubifs_fixup_free_space()', it does not call 'ubifs_lpt_free()' whereas LPT
data structures can potentially be allocated. The amount of memory leaked can
be quite high -- see 'ubifs_lpt_init()'.
The bug was introduced when moving the LPT initialisation earlier in the
mount process (commit '781c5717a95a74b294beb38b8276943b0f8b5bb4').

Most functions in UBIFS follow the following designn pattern: if the function
allocates multiple resources, and failss at some point, it frees what it has
allocated and returns an error. So the caller can rely on the fact that the
callee has cleaned up everything after own failure.
