Hi,
UBI can be considered as a block device with a large (=eraseblock) block
size. But it is barely practical to use a block device with such a large
eraseblock size.
To have a good block device, one have to build one more software layer
over UBI - a kind of UBI translation layer (UTL). A sane UTL would have
a Garbage collector. Of course, it is easier to build such a layer over
UBI then over bare MTD device.
