--------------------------------
During the processing of the bgt, if the sync_erase() return -EBUSY or some other error code in __erase_worker(),schedule_erase() called again lead to the down_read(ubi->work_sem) hold twice and may get block by down_write(ubi->work_sem) in ubi_update_fastmap(), which cause deadlock.
ubi bgt other task do_work down_read(&ubi->work_sem) ubi_update_fastmap erase_worker # Blocked by down_read __erase_worker down_write(&ubi->work_sem) schedule_erase schedule_ubi_work down_read(&ubi->work_sem)
Fix this by changing input parameter @nested of the schedule_erase() to 'true' to avoid recursively acquiring the down_read(&ubi->work_sem).
Also, fix the incorrect comment about @nested parameter of the schedule_erase() because when down_write(ubi->work_sem) is held, the @nested is also need be true.
