Dear Mark Jackson,

It would be good if the commit title was:

I believe that the default "" is not needed, since this is the default
(empty value).

If you have some time, you could send a follow-up patch that factorizes
all the "depends on BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_UBIFS" by enclosing the UBI
options in a "if BR2_TARGET_ROOTFS_UBIFS .. endif" block. But if you do
it, do it as a separate patch.

Ditto for default.

... and for the separate patch to factor out the depends on here.

Once the minor details above (title and removal of default "") are
fixed, you can resend a v2 with my:
