I'm afraid it is too late for me to use UBIFS, as I need to perform upgrade of my devices in the field and migration from JFFS2 to UBIFS seems impossible (at least without some additional free space in flash).

I concluded that JFFS2 should also handle this kind of scenarios after reading about CRC failures in http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/jffs2.html#L_messages
