Subject: [052/129] UBI: fix nameless volumes handling

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Richard Weinberger <richard@....at>

commit 4a59c797a18917a5cf3ff7ade296b46134d91e6a upstream.

Currently it's possible to create a volume without a name. E.g:
ubimkvol -n 32 -s 2MiB -t static /dev/ubi0 -N ""

After that vtbl_check() will always fail because it does not permit
empty strings.
