Well, this is not what I said on IRC.
The u-boot "bindings" are not nice but functional.
We saw over the last time a few ubifs_assert() triggering, these triggered since
ever but nobody noticed. The loglevel rework just exposed them.

So yes, there are things that need improving but calling the whole thing as broken
is false.
For the ".." issue, here someone has to sit down and either make sure that all filesystems
in u-boot get this handled in a generic way or hack it directly into the ubifs code.
I prefer the former...
