In function  INFTL_findwriteunit, inappropriate pending block
parameter is passed which prevents 0xFFFF block copy during foldchain.
This patch fixes the problem.

I cannot apply your patch. Please, send the patch to yourself first,
make sure you can save it and apply using 'git am', and when it works,
send it to the mailing list.

Hint: we use "git format-patch" to create patches.

Thanks.
