[PATCH] ubifs: Check for name being NULL while mounting

[Richard Weinberger <richard@xxxxxx>]

The requested device name can be NULL or an empty string.
Check for that and refuse to continue. UBIFS has to do this manually
since we cannot use mount_bdev(), which checks for this condition.

Fixes: 1e51764a3c2ac ("UBIFS: add new flash file system")
