It's a little difficult for people to test stuff on UBIFS without a turn-key
solution like kvm-xfstests where they can just run something like
'kvm-xfstests -c ext4,f2fs,ubifs -g encrypt'.

I did post patches to add UBIFS support to xfstests and kvm-xfstests a few
months ago; maybe you're interested in taking them over and working to get them
merged?

The patch only changes the presentation of long encrypted filenames when
accessed without the key.  It doesn't change how filenames are encrypted.
