Hi Richard,

After the 'coding style related'/'useless' comments, now comes a real
question related to the approach you've taken :-).

Do we really need to create a ubi_work per PEB ?
Couldn't we create a single work being rescheduled inside the worker
function (after updating the ubi_wl_entry of course).

I'm pretty sure I'm missing something obvious that you'll probably
point out ;-).
