Sorry to complain again, but I don't think this was the right thing to
do. Those 2 patches are unrelated to "cmd: ubi: Remove useless call to
->mtdparts_init()", it's just that this commit uncovers problems in the
dependency definition of the DFU_NAND and MTD{PARTS,IDS}_DEFAULT
options.

If you want to keep things bisectable, it would be preferable to
move those 2 commits before "cmd: ubi: Remove useless call to
->mtdparts_init()" (and rework the commit messages accordingly).

Regards,

Boris
