I also need to reinitialize the complete filesystem if something is
inconsistent from a known-good source (in that case on a NAND flash).
The idea was to ubiformat everything (which preserves wear counters) and
re-create the filesystem on top of it (and in the first place I thought
I'd use ubifs). I don't think there is a way to re-create a jffs *and*
preserving wear counters?

Thanks
