[PATCH] UBI: amend NOR flash pre-erase quirk

From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy at nokia.com>

In case of NOR flash, UBI zeroes EC and VID headers' magic,
in order to detect interrupted erasures. It first zeroes out
the EC magic, then VID magic. However, if a power cut happens
in between, we'll end up with a corrupted EC header and a valid
VID header, in which case UBI accepts the PEB, but prints a
warning. This patch makes sure we first zero out the VID
magic, then the EC magic, not vice versa. This is just a
small amendment to prevent warning messages.
