 * This function calculates amount of free space to report to user-space.
 *
 * Because UBIFS may introduce substantial overhead (the index, node headers,
 * alignment, wastage at the end of LEBs, etc), it cannot report real amount of
 * free flash space it has (well, because not all dirty space is reclaimable,
 * UBIFS does not actually know the real amount). If UBIFS did so, it would
 * bread user expectations about what free space is. Users seem to accustomed
 * to assume that if the file-system reports N bytes of free space, they would
 * be able to fit a file of N bytes to the FS. This almost works for
 * traditional file-systems, because they have way less overhead than UBIFS.
 * So, to keep users happy, UBIFS tries to take the overhead into account.
