log do_image_ubifs

Ubi and Ubifs image compression failed on do_image_ubi  and do_image_ubifs when compiling.

Steps to reproduce
1. Add the following variables to "conf/local.conf"
IMAGE_FSTYPES += "ubi ubifs"
2. Compile
$ bitbake core-image-minimal

Expected result:
The compilation process should be performed successfully and the generated compressed image should be at: "~/tmp/deploy/images/machine/"

Actual result:
The compilation image process failed getting the following error message:

Comment 1 Francisco Pedraza 2017-05-29 21:19:50 UTC 
I has relation with another implementation I am working on: https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10745
Comment 2 Choong Yin Thong 2017-06-09 09:53:33 UTC 
Please add below configuration in conf/local.conf and the build will successful.
MKUBIFS_ARGS = " -m 512 -e 15360 -c 3600 "
UBINIZE_ARGS = " -p 16KiB -m 512 -s 512 "

Enhancement on image_type.bbclass in order to pre-early bring out the error and example configuration for any ubi and ubifs image build.
