There is no need to allocate new ones every time, we can reuse
the existing ones.
This makes the code cleaner and more easy to follow.

Not related to this patch, but looking at this function it got me thinking: why do we need to re-calculate new_fm->used_blocks (and check calculated value) each time? fm_size doesn't changed at runtime. leb_size sure does not, so fm->used_blocks can be ubi device parameter and calculated & tested only once, and not each time we write fastmap. Correct?
