Surprised to hear that. I saw some boards lately doing exactly that. Things 
like kernel image are copied in Linux to e.g. /boot and U-Boot just picks it 
up from there.

I tried to find out more about using UBI static volumes in general and for 
that usecase, but neither http://linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubi.html nor 
http://linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/ubi.html point me in a direction where to 
find real world examples to look at. Are there any boards in the wild using 
this? Maybe with defconfigs in U-Boot already?
