But I guess you may add an UBI module parameter which will ask UBI to
use major numbers you want - should be easy to do. E.g., if you add a
'major_base=200' parameter then UBI will use 200:0 for ubi0, 201:0 for
ubi1, 200:1 for ubi0_0, 200:2 for ubi0_1, etc.

Then you could do:

modprobe ubi major_base=200

or add

ubi.major_base=200

to you kernel parameters if you have UBI compiled-in.
