Re: [PATCH 0/5] ubi: Enhanced fault injection capability for the UBI driver

[ZhaoLong Wang <wangzhaolong1@huawei.com>]

Thank you very much for replying to my email. I agree with you.

I'll tweak my patch in the next few weeks, try to keep the old interface and
be compatible with the new interface.

Best Regards
