[PATCHv2] ubi: fastmap: fix slab corruption

From: Rabin Vincent <rabinv at axis.com>

Booting with UBI fastmap and SLUB debugging enabled results in the
following splats.  The problem is that ubi_scan_fastmap() moves the
fastmap blocks from the scan_ai (allocated in scan_fast()) to the ai
allocated in ubi_attach().  This results in two problems:

 - When the scan_ai is freed, aebs which were allocated from its slab
   cache are still in use.

 - When the other ai is being destroyed in destroy_ai(), the
   arguments to kmem_cache_free() call are incorrect since aebs on its
   ->fastmap list were allocated with a slab cache from a differnt ai.

Fix this by making a copy of the aebs in ubi_scan_fastmap() instead of
moving them.
