One other thing. You might consider try gettting the garbage collect
code runnig. This might help solve your problem. 

I guess as a proof of concept just call
jffs2_garbage_collect_pass(JFFS2_SB_INFO(jffs2_sb));

This is not strictly correct since you need to add locking to one of
the lists to make this thread safe. I forget which and i've forgotten
where i read about this, but im sure google will find it for you.
