In principle U-Boot has the same code as Linux. Current
U-Boot uses Linux code from:

linux v4.2 commit 64291f7db5bd8150a74ad2036f1037e6a0428df2

see U-Boot commit: 0195a7bb36a0abc71145da419001377bf56662fd

2013-10 uses an older Source Base, so update to current U-Boot
is recommended... yes.

Do you see this issue also with Linux?

Do you use UBI FASTMAP?

bye,
Heiko
