Subject: [PATCH] ubifs: allow more than one volume to be mounted

UBIFS uses a bdi device per volume, but does not care to hand out unique
names to each of them. This causes an error when trying to mount more
than one volumes.

[ 239.277407] kobject_add_internal failed for ubifs with -EEXIST, don't try to register things with the same name in the same directory.

Append the UBI volume and device ID to avoid that.

I've simplified your patch a little and pushed to ubifs-2.6.git. Also
amended the MAINTAINERS file:

http://git.infradead.org/ubifs-2.6.git?a=commit;h=72093a661c0bd06d4843ac0ef8b909645483031b
http://git.infradead.org/ubifs-2.6.git?a=commit;h=42feebfc9af4ab505cacb0ea20bef35957ef2676

I'll send this fix to Linus in few days.
