From the description of CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS:
Please note that some tools/drivers/filesystems may not work with 4096 B erase size (e.g. UBIFS requires 15 KiB as a minimum).
The kernel config CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS, which is enabled by default is removed.
Unit Test:
cisco@sonic:~$ grep CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS /boot/config-5.10.0-18-2-amd64
# CONFIG_MTD_SPI_NOR_USE_4K_SECTORS is not set
cisco@sonic:~$ findmnt -n /mnt/obfl
/mnt/obfl ubi0 ubifs rw,relatime,assert=read-only,ubi=0,vol=0
* Addressed PR comments.
* Removed the config from amd64 arch.
