I think you do not have this patch:

http://git.infradead.org/?p=3Dusers/dedekind/ubifs-v2.6.22.git;a=3Dcommitdi=
ff;h=3D9c04728f3cb585f1e0b3df4f0ae2aec1bf73e392;hp=3Daad43553d81d1b79f64cde=
3c81b71bfc3036d098

You probably use old UBIFS. Keep in mind, it is constantly developed so
you should always try the latest one if you have problems.

There are 2.6.22, 2.6.23, and 2.6.24 ubifs backports BTW,
see http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html#L_source

AFAIR you use 2.6.22, so here it is:

git://git.infradead.org/~dedekind/ubifs-v2.6.22.git

Just download it - it has all the need patches. But I encourage you to
use the lates development tree.
