I was testing this too as enabling the UBIFS on NOR and here are my
output. Wonder how to simulate your errors as I can help to take a
look?

ubifsmount - mount UBIFS volume

Error reading superblock on volume 'ubi0:testvol' errno=-22!
ubifsmount - mount UBIFS volume

In the mean time, I was not able to get ubifsmount works. Appreciate
for any quick advise? Else will look into the code tomorrow as my bed
is calling me :)
Thanks
