639  * @desc: volume descriptor

641  *
642  * This function un-maps logical eraseblock @lnum and schedules the
643  * corresponding physical eraseblock for erasure, so that it will eventually be
644  * physically erased in background. This operation is much faster than the
645  * erase operation.
646  *
647  * Unlike erase, the un-map operation does not guarantee that the logical
648  * eraseblock will contain all 0xFF bytes when UBI is initialized again. For
649  * example, if several logical eraseblocks are un-mapped, and an unclean reboot
650  * happens after this, the logical eraseblocks will not necessarily be
651  * un-mapped again when this MTD device is attached. They may actually be
652  * mapped to the same physical eraseblocks again. So, this function has to be
653  * used with care.
654  *
655  * In other words, when un-mapping a logical eraseblock, UBI does not store
656  * any information about this on the flash media, it just marks the logical
657  * eraseblock as "un-mapped" in RAM. If UBI is detached before the physical
658  * eraseblock is physically erased, it will be mapped again to the same logical
659  * eraseblock when the MTD device is attached again.
660  *
661  * The main and obvious use-case of this function is when the contents of a
662  * logical eraseblock has to be re-written. Then it is much more efficient to
663  * first un-map it, then write new data, rather than first erase it, then write
664  * new data. Note, once new data has been written to the logical eraseblock,
665  * UBI guarantees that the old contents has gone forever. In other words, if an
666  * unclean reboot happens after the logical eraseblock has been un-mapped and
667  * then written to, it will contain the last written data.
668  *
669  * This function returns zero in case of success and a negative error code in
670  * case of failure. If the volume is damaged because of an interrupted update
671  * this function just returns immediately with %-EBADF code.
