Sure, but please implement UBI on NOR as a generic solution.

What do you mean? It already works quite well (with that patch applied
and the NOR sub-profile), so I'm not sure I have to implement
anything, be it generic or not.

I've meant to make it generic, like the squashfs/ubfs/etc images so other targets can use it, too.

As I've written in the other mail, I'm mostly happy with it, but please make
sure you don't hardcode available profiles but parse them.

If we don't plan on supporting building single sub-profiles like
ar71xx, I'm not even sure that we need to parse anything, we can just
loop over the sub-profiles list in any case.

I think supporting that could be handy so users (and people at Marvell) can just build what they want.
