Thanks, I've ported that one changeset to u-boot.  (I first tried
updating u-boot/fs/ubifs to the latest kernel code but this was too
difficult without any real understanding.)

Unfortunately I've got to wait for a repro before I can tell if it
fixes the issue... so I may go quiet for a few weeks.

Regards,

Alex
