UBIFS: do not write master node if need recovery

The commits 781c5717 ("UBIFS: intialize LPT earlier") and 09801194 ("UBIFS:
fix-up free space earlier") move some initialization before marking the
master node dirty. But the modification changes the conditions of writing
master.

If unclean umount happens, ubifs may fail when mounting. But trying to
mount it will write new master nodes on the flash. This is useless but
increasing sqnum. So check need_recovery before writing master node, and
don't create new master node if filesystem needs recovery.
