If there is more then one UBI device mounted, there is no way to
distinguish between messages from different UBI devices.
Add device number to all ubi layer message types.

oops.... sorry about that. thanks for the fix.

Anyway, instead of passing ubi->ubi_num down to every log function you can
just pass the ubi object itself and let the log function access ->ubi_num.

This is how I first implemented this patch. But then I cam across some ubi_err prints during the init process (in build.c ubi_init()) when we still don't have the ubi structure, so we need to pass some number to the message. I overcame this by using UBI_MAX_DEVICES.
