No idea why this could happen. Did you try do narrow down the problem to
a simpler use-case?
That thread was about NOR, that should not happen on NAND. This looks
like you have issues on NAND flash driver or HW level, not in UBI/UBIFS.
Please, start from running MTD tests and validate you NAND:

And next time please try to follow these bug-report suggestions:
