Sure, I just to not have time to look at real stuff now.

But yes, I assume you will come up with a good way to stress-test it.
You will look how the unstable bits problem affects the checkpointing. I
would suggest you to implement power-cut emulation in UBI just like we
have it in UBIFS, then run the integck test which already supports UBIFS
power cut emulation. This will allow to catch a lot of issues.
