Thanks!

I've noticed a diff in the Kconfig describing MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT.

In my original [PATCH 2/5] "ubi: Limit amount of reserved eraseblocks
for bad PEB handling" I've amended the MTD_UBI_BEB_LIMIT explanation a
bit.

The diff between what's on linux-ubi and my suggested description is:

-         This option specifies the maximum bad physical eraseblocks UBI
-         expects on the UBI device (percents of total number of physical
-         eraseblocks on this MTD partition). If the underlying flash does not
-         admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR flash), this value is ignored.
+         If the MTD device admits of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NAND flash), UBI
+         reserves some amount of physical eraseblocks to handle new bad
+         eraseblocks.
+         This option specifies the maximum bad eraseblocks UBI expects on the
+         ubi device (percents of total number of flash eraseblocks).
+         This limit is used in order to derive amount of eraseblock UBI
+         reserves for handling new bad blocks.
+         If the device has more bad eraseblocks than this limit, UBI does not
+         reserve any physical eraseblocks for new bad eraseblocks, but
+         attempts to use available eraseblocks (if any).
+         If the underlying flash does not admit of bad eraseblocks (e.g. NOR
+         flash), this value is ignored.

Just wanted to make sure you deliberately discarded these amendments.

Regards,
Shmulik
