Usually static devices nodes and mdev for hotplug are enough or at least you could use a simple script to create only once time the devices file (mdev -s). About the fs, do you really need a rootfs with ubifs? I mean, you could "split" your fs. You could use a read-only fs (SquashFS for example) for your root-fs, ubifs for permanent storage data (mounted under /data for example) and a ram fs for volatile data.
