UBI: fix eraseblock picking criteria
commit 7eb3aa65853e1b223bfc786b023b702018cb76c0 upstream. The 'find_wl_entry()' function expects the maximum difference as the second argument, not the maximum absolute value. So the "unknown" eraseblock picking was incorrect, as Shmulik Ladkani spotted. This patch fixes the issue.
