OK. So it _is_ making progress, but just very slowly. It _is_ garbage
collecting, but it's not having to write out new nodes, because it's
mostly just erasing.
Can you build with CONFIG_JFFS2_FS_DEBUG=1 and show the output while
it's doing this? It shouldn't be taking that long -- I wonder what else
is going on.
