ubinize 1.5.2 (currently packaged in Buildroot) returns 0 in case of
some errors. This can lead to unnoticed errors in the middle of a
build.

Fix by adding a patch from upstream, which is not yet present in any
released version.

+Subject: [PATCH] mtd-utils: ubinize: Always return error code (at least -1) in
+ case of an error
+
+ubinize should not fail silenty, this can be very annoying when using
+it from other tools that rely on the exit code for determining the
+success of their operation.
