Subject: [Buildroot] Why is extfs filesystem mandatory?

Hash: SHA1

While trying to build a large system I keep getting an error stating
that there is no room left on the device during the generation of the
ext2 filesystem.  It is my understanding that this is due to a hard
upper limit imposed by the genext2fs utility.

This would not be an issue for me if I could simply disable said step,
however there seems to be no way to disable generation of the ext2
filesystem in the menuconfig.

Is there a reason why this cannot be disabled?
