From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>

Resolve issue noted by Sneha:  when computing oobavail from
the list of free areas in the OOB, don't assume there will
always be an unused slot at the end.  With ECC_HW_SYNDROME
and 4K page chips, it's fairly likely there *won't* be one.

Seems appropriate for a 2.6.30-rc merge.
