[PATCH 1/2] UBI: fix two issues in the ubi.mtd MODULE_PARM_DESC

Fix two issues introduced before:

 - The parameter format string was missing the enable_fm and
    need_resv_pool tokens introduced in an earlier commit.

 - The bad-block reservation note was misplaced after Example 5
    instead of after Example 3. It was misplaced due to an earlier patch.

Fixes: 83ff59a06663 ("UBI: support ubi_num on mtd.ubi command line")
