kernel: backport yet another cosmetic ubifs patch

On UBI-enabled devices using squashfs as their rootfs an error
message like
UBIFS error (ubi0:3 pid 1): init_constants_early: too few LEBs (12), min. is 17
was thrown while probe-mounting the rootfs which later on succeeds and
thus shouldn't alert the user.

+Subject: [PATCH] ubifs: silence another error if MS_SILENT is set
+To: linux-mtd@lists.infradead.org
+Cc: Artem Bityutskiy <dedekind1@gmail.com>,

+
+Probe-mounting a volume too small for UBIFS results in kernel log
+polution which might irritate users.
+Address this by silencing errors which may happen during boot if the
+rootfs is e.g. squashfs (and thus rather small) stored on a UBI volume.
+This commit should be seen in context with
+commit 65fb47721925628bf85ec08c4302ac5e7224a66a
+and
+commit 90bea5a3f0bf680b87b90516f3c231997f4b8f3b
