[PATCH] UBIFS: fix commentaries

[Artem Bityutskiy]

From: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>

Change "write-back does take inode @i_mutex" to "write-back does not
take inode @i_mutex" type. IOW, this patch just adds "not" word, the
rest of the changes are just re-formatting to fit the 80 characters
line limit.

Please, do not look at this patch. I'll create a different one at
some point.
