[BUG v1.4.6] `ubinfo -a' confused about non-consecutive UBI device numbers

[Brian Foster]

Hello,

 Using mtd-utils v1.4.6 with a v2.6.36 Linux kernel,
 if I have non-consecutive UBI device numbers (in the
 example below, ‘ubi0’ and ‘ubi10’), then ‘ubinfo -a’,
 after printing the info for ‘ubi0’, errors with:

    ubinfo: error!: cannot get information about UBI device 1
            error 2 (No such file or directory)

 In case it matters, ‘ubi0’ was attached/mounted by
 kernel command-line (it's my rootfs).  My normal
 practice is for manually attached MTD and UBI device
 numbers to be the same (with 12(!) MTD devices this
 greatly reduces confusion!).

ubinfo: error!: cannot get information about UBI device 1
        error 2 (No such file or directory)

 Notice that ‘ubinfo -a’ is fully and correctly aware of
 the attached devices, listing only ‘ubi0’ and ‘ubi10’.
 Nonetheless, it tries to print information about/from
 the non-existent ‘ubi1’.

 I have not investigated, nor tried other/recent versions.

cheers!
