 * Name: nxffs_hdrpos
 *
 * Description:
 *   Find a valid location for the inode header.  A valid location will have
 *   these properties:
 *
 *   1. It will lie in the free flash region.
 *   2. It will have enough contiguous memory to hold the entire header
 *      (excluding the file name which may lie in the next block).
 *   3. The memory at this location will be fully erased.
 *
 *   This function will only perform the checks of 1) and 2).
 *
 * Input Parameters:
 *   volume - Describes the NXFFS volume
 *   wrfile - Contains the current guess for the header position.  On
 *     successful return, this field will hold the selected header
 *     position.
 *
 * Returned Value:
 *   Zero is returned on success.  Otherwise, a negated errno value is
 *   returned indicating the nature of the failure.  Of special interest
 *   the return error of -ENOSPC which means that the FLASH volume is
 *   full and should be repacked.
 *
 *   On successful return the following are also valid:
 *
 *     wrfile->ofile.entry.hoffset - FLASH offset to candidate header position
 *     volume->ioblock - Read/write block number of the block containing the
 *       header position
 *     volume->iooffset - The offset in the block to the candidate header
 *       position.
 *     volume->froffset - Updated offset to the first free FLASH block.
