This is not correct. At this point the UBI thread is not ready.
I know, I know, U-Boot has no threads but some data structures might
not be ready.
Let me think how to work around this properly.
The root cause seems to be that U-Boot misses this fix from Linux:
commit 1cb8f9776c7dcadc57885c6653943511d282633b

ubi: fastmap: Implement produce_free_peb()
If fastmap requests a free PEB for a pool and UBI is busy
with erasing PEBs we need to offer a function to wait for one.
We can reuse produce_free_peb() from the non-fastmap WL code
but with different locking semantics.

Heiko, I'm currently working on Fastmap in Linux[0].
I suggest to re-syncing with Linux if my changes go upstream, I can ping you
them. :-)
Fastmap gained many improvements since the last sync.
Yes, but I am currently under load, and doing a rebase is a bigger
task I fear (I speculate currently to automate this task with tbot,
let me think a little bit about this, if this would work, U-Boot UBI
would autaomtically follow linux tree, and I immediately would see
merge errors ...)
Also before a rebase can go mainline, we need deep testing. So no
fast chance here for me ... sorry. If we can find commits, which
fix this regression, it may makes sense to apply them before such a
rebase ... ?
bye,
Heiko
Thanks,
