Is there a bug in the UBIFS?

[Huang Shijie]

Hi Artem:
I tested the GPMI driver in imx28 board with Linus's latest tree.

The gpmi-nand driver passed the mtd_speedtest.ko and mtd_stresstest.ko
tests.

But when I test the UBIFS, i meet a bug:

I am not sure whether it's a UBIFS's bug, or the gpmi-nand's bug.

If you think it's not the UBIFS's bug, please tell me.

Anyway, i am debugging it now.
