ubi: wl: Close down wear-leveling before nand is suspended

If a reboot/shutdown signal with double force (-ff) is triggered when
the erase worker or wear-leveling worker function runs we may end up in
a race condition since the MTD device gets a reboot notification and
suspends the nand flash before the erase or wear-leveling is done. This
will reject all accesses to the flash with -EBUSY.

Sequence for the erase worker function:

   systemctl reboot -ff           ubi_thread

                                do_work
 __do_sys_reboot
   blocking_notifier_call_chain
     mtd_reboot_notifier
       nand_shutdown
         nand_suspend
                                  __erase_worker
                                    ubi_sync_erase
                                      mtd_erase
                                        nand_erase_nand

                                          # Blocked by suspended chip
                                          nand_get_device
                                            => EBUSY

Similar sequence for the wear-leveling function:

   systemctl reboot -ff           ubi_thread

                                do_work
 __do_sys_reboot
   blocking_notifier_call_chain
     mtd_reboot_notifier
       nand_shutdown
         nand_suspend
                                  wear_leveling_worker
                                    ubi_eba_copy_leb
                                      ubi_io_write
                                        mtd_write
                                          nand_write_oob

                                            # Blocked by suspended chip
                                            nand_get_device
                                              => EBUSY

Add a reboot notification for the ubi/wear-leveling to shutdown any
potential flash work actions before the nand is suspended.
