[PATCH] kernel: Create UBIFS v5 volume

Sat Aug 8 11:49:03 EDT 2020
In commit 87b35c16adcf ("kernel: ubifs: create use file system format 4
by default") we changed the default UBIFS version used when the kernel
creates a new volume from 5 to 4. UBIFS v5 was added in kernel 4.10 and
only kernel 4.10 and later can read it.
We changed the kernel to create version 4 volumes also on more recent
kernel versions to make it possible to downgrade to an OpenWrt version
with kernel 4.9, the upgrade still works. This is probably not needed
any more and we can remove this patch.

-Subject: ubifs: Add option to create UBI FS version 4 on empty UBI volume
-
-Instead of creating an ubifs file system with format version 5 by
-default on empty UBI volumes add a compile option to create an older ubi
-with file system format version 4 instated. This allows it to be mount
-as a volume on kernel versions < 4.10, which does not support format
-version 5.
-We saw that some people can not access their older data when they
-downgraded from kernel 4.14 to kernel 4.9 to prevent this this option
-would help.
