Instead of marking static volume device files as character devices 
introduced a truncate callback for device files.
This makes it possible to dump static ubi volumes from flash.

Teresa Remmet (6):
  libfile: copy_file: Only open regular files with O_TRUNC
  devfs: Add optional truncate callback for device files
  ubi: Add truncate callback
  fs: Remove O_TRUNC check for devices when open files
  commands: ubi: ubiupdatevol: Open device with O_TRUNC
  ubi: barebox: Remove character device flag from static volumes
