I doubt it. JFFS2 is not supported much anymore, and it is not
designed for some of the problems with modern NAND flash.

Have you read the information here?

http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/doc/ubifs.html#L_unstable_bits

I'm not much of an export on UBIFS or unstable bits, but I think that
there are some unsolved problems. However, before ruling this an
unstable bits problem, it's a good idea to rule out any other possible
issues.
