UBIFS journal not replayed

[richardweinberger]

On UBIFS replaying the journal is mandatory. If you don't do so the index tree can point to wrong (outdated or dead) leaf nodes.
You can do it like u-boot and replay into memory (e.g. just into TNC).
Please note that even a clean unmount of UBIFS does not lead to an empty journal.
That's why replaying is mandatory.

Hi Richard Weinberger,

Thanks for letting me know, I was aware of unclean shutdowns causing issue, but not aware clean one's could cause issue to. There seems to be a lot of people using this with NAND dumps, instead of just downloaded firmware images, so this should be a priority.
