Linux 3.5-rc2 and ubifs as root

Hi all,

I have my root partition on a UBIFS, on top on my docg3 MTD.
With version 3.4, my kernel boots fine. With version 3.5-rc2, my kernel can't
find the root partition.

My command line is :
mtdparts=docg3.0:256k at 3456k(barebox)ro,256k(barebox-logo),128k(barebox-env),4M(kernel),-(root)
ubi.mtd=4 rootfstype=ubifs root=ubi0:linux_root ro

Now, the funny thing : if I boot with the same kernel on my SD card (change on
the commandline to root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 for example), and then
issue "mount -t ubifs ubi0:linux_root /mnt", it works.

Did that happen to anybody else ?

Cheers.
