I tested a nearly completely automated conversion to use
functions ad %pV for ubifs_err/ubifs_warn while adding
'\n' to the uses. (converted ubifs_msg to ubifs_notice too)

It reduces the object size a couple percent.
(allyesconfig)

$ size fs/ubifs/built-in.o*
   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
 335548	  66040	 138064	 539652	  83c04	fs/ubifs/built-in.o.new
 353362	  65912	 138000	 557274	  880da	fs/ubifs/built-in.o.old

It's not any real quantity of work to redo after you
post your patch.

There are a few defects today with unnecessary newlines
with ubifs_<level> uses.

$ git grep -P '\bubifs_\w+\s*.*\\n' 062a08d6ad56da23209083748ea5e0f1ab65a0e7 -- fs/ubifs/
062a08d6ad56da23209083748ea5e0f1ab65a0e7:fs/ubifs/debug.c:      ubifs_msg("first node at %d:%d\n", zbr1->lnum, zbr1->offs);
062a08d6ad56da23209083748ea5e0f1ab65a0e7:fs/ubifs/debug.c:      ubifs_msg("second node at %d:%d\n", zbr2->lnum, zbr2->offs);
062a08d6ad56da23209083748ea5e0f1ab65a0e7:fs/ubifs/debug.c:      ubifs_err("cannot create \"%s\" debugfs file or directory, error %d\n",
062a08d6ad56da23209083748ea5e0f1ab65a0e7:fs/ubifs/debug.c:      ubifs_err("cannot create \"%s\" debugfs file or directory, error %d\n",

Some with pr_<level> uses too.
