[PATCH 4/7] UBIFS: use max_write_size for write-buffers

[Artem Bityutskiy]

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

Switch write-buffers from 'c->min_io_size' to 'c->max_write_size' which
presumably has to be more write speed-efficient. However, when write-buffer
is synchronized, write only the the min. I/O units which contain the
data, do not write whole write-buffer. This is more space-efficient.
