3.2.102-rc1 review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Clay McClure <clay@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit a51a0c8d213594bc094cb8e54aad0cb6d7f7b9a6 upstream.
Similar to commit 714fb87e8bc0 ("ubi: Fix race condition between ubi
device creation and udev"), we should make the volume active before
registering it.
