Hi YAFFSERs

Thanks to Stephan for pointing out the holes in the du reporting. I have just
patched yaffs_fs.c with something that should be right. Comments/feedback
appreciated. NB though: du is at best an approximation of actual disk in use.
It does not take into account reserved space etc.

Wookey has checked in a submitted path in yaffs_guts to do with the handling
of yaffs_DeleteChunk(). While the patch should be benign (ie won't break
YAFFS), I think the patch is based on a misunderstanding of the way NAND
works and do not think it is required and will slow things slightly. I am
discussing the issue with the submitter and Wookey to resolve one way or the
other.

Regards
