SubjectRe: UBI fastmap updates

Need to consider what's expected when migrating from a former non-FM
UBI system to an FM enabled system, in the case where all PEBs where
consumed (reserved) in the former system.

Since FM does not use EBA's atomic LEB change when writing the new
fastmap, but instead implements its own FM "leb change" internally -
then reserving 2x is needed if we'd like to avoid reusing the same
fastmap PEB.
