[PATCH 2/2] ubi: Expose the bitrot interface

[Richard Weinberger <richard@xxxxxx>]

Using UBI_IOCRPEB and UBI_IOCSPEB userspace can force
reading and scrubbing of PEBs.

In case of bitflips UBI will automatically take action
and move data to a different PEB.
This interface allows a daemon to foster your NAND.
