UBIFS: handle allocation failures in UBIFS write path

Running kernel 2.6.37, my PPC-based device occasionally gets an
order-2 allocation failure in UBIFS, which causes the root FS to
become unwritable:

kswapd0: page allocation failure. order:2, mode:0x4050

Similar problems were encountered last April by Tomasz Stanislawski:

http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/50965/

This patch implements Artem's suggested fix: fall back to a
mutex-protected static buffer, allocated at mount time.  I tested it
by forcing execution down the failure path, and didn't see any ill
effects.

Artem: massaged the patch a little, improved it so that we'd not
allocate the write reserve buffer when we are in R/O mode.
