    [JFFS2] Relax threshold for triggering GC due to dirty blocks.
    
    Instead of matching resv_blocks_gcmerge, which is only about 3, instead
    match resv_blocks_gctrigger, which includes a proportion of the total
    device size.
    
    These ought to become tunable from userspace, at some point.
