AFAIK I was not really happy with the series because it did not
support project quotas
and had some issues with being power-cut tolerant.
VFS folks also had concerns since the quota subsystem assumes a block
device but UBIFS
works on top of a character device. This needs to be addressed is a
sane way too.
