+ * eraseblock. This means, that after a successfull invocation of this
+ * function the logical eraseblock @lnum will be empty (contain only %0xFF
+ * bytes) and be mapped to a physical eraseblock, even if an unclean reboot
+ * happens.
+ *
+ * This function returns zero in case of success, %-EBADF if the volume is
+ * damaged because of an interrupted update, %-EBADMSG if the logical
+ * eraseblock is already mapped, and other negative error codes in case of
+ * other failures.
