UBIFS: introduce debugfs helpers
Separate out pieces of code from the debugfs file read/write functions and create separate 'interpret_user_input()'/'provide_user_output()' helpers. These helpers will be needed in one of the following patches, so this is just a preparational change. Signed-off-by: Artem Bityutskiy <Artem.Bityutskiy@nokia.com>
