[JFFS2] Fix jffs2_reserve_space() when all blocks are pending erasure.

When _all_ the blocks were on the erase_pending_list, we could't find a
block to GC from but there was no _actually_ free space, and
jffs2_reserve_space() would get a little unhappy.

Handle this case by returning -EAGAIN from jffs2_garbage_collect_pass().
There are two callers of that function -- jffs2_flush_wbuf_gc(), which
will interpret it as an error and flush the writebuffer by other means,
and jffs2_reserve_space(), which we modify to respond to -EAGAIN with an
immediate call to jffs2_erase_pending_blocks() and another run round the
loop.
