Add mtd-utils upstream patch that fixes a regression on the
mtd-utils tools such as ubinfo.

Details of the issue which affects mtd-utils 2.0.1 and 2.0.2:

+Subject: [PATCH] Revert "Return correct error number in ubi_get_vol_info1"
+
+This reverts commit dede98ffb706676309488d7cc660f569548d5930.
+
+The original commit tried to fix a descrepancy between the implementation
+and the documentation by making the implementation comply.
+
+When making the change, it was overlooked, that ubinfo and ubirename were
+written against the implementation instead of the behaviour specified by
+the documentation. So were further internal functions like
+ubi_get_vol_info1_nm which further breaks ubirmvol.
+
+A report with an outline of a resulting problem can be read on
+the mailing list:
+
+http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2018-June/081562.html
+
+From the report:
+
+steps to reproduce: have mtd-utils 2.0.1 or 2.0.2
+
+0. make a bunch of ubi volumes in sequential order
+
+ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test1
+ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test2
+ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test3
+ubimkvol /dev/ubi0 -s 64KiB -N test4
+..
+
+1. delete the test1 volume, making a hole in the volume table
+
+ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N test1
+
+2. try an affected tool (i.e. "ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N test4" )
+
+ |root at mr24:/# ubirmvol /dev/ubi0 -N test4
+ |ubirmvol: error!: cannot find UBI volume "test4"
+ |         error 19 (No such device)
