Fixes: 2a734bb8d502 ("UBI: use debugfs for the extra checks knobs")
There is a mistake in docstrings, it should be ubi_debugfs_exit_dev
instead of dbg_debug_exit_dev.

All modern drivers can support extra partitions using the extended
dev_t.  In fact except for the ioctl method drivers never even see
partitions in normal operation.

So remove the GENHD_FL_EXT_DEVT and allow extra partitions for all
block devices that do support partitions, and require those that
do not support partitions to explicit disallow them using
GENHD_FL_NO_PART.

The snprintf() function returns the number of characters (not
counting the NUL terminator) that it would have printed if we
had space.

This buffer has UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN characters plus one extra for
the terminator.  Printing UBIFS_DFS_DIR_LEN is okay but anything
higher will result in truncation.  Thus the comparison needs to be
change from == to &gt;.

These strings are compile time constants so this patch doesn't
affect runtime.
