Yes, it's okay. I have backported the patches to our product(kernel 
v5.10) and it works fine.

Can I regard the rescuing as making erase counters become normal 
again(max - min <= UBI_WL_THRESHOLD)? If so, I'm afraid that not all 
PEBs can be rescued, according to get_peb_for_wl().
For example: PB, PC cannot be rescued, unless PA is taken for writing 
and then wl is just right scheduled.
