I understand.

Since commit 2813006fecdab740c3745b2dcbb06777cdd51dff on u-boot-imx 
branch the USB Ethernet driver on my custom i.MX28 board is broken. I 
cannot use tftp for downloading a file. The patch from Stephen Warren 
fixed most (but not all) problems with the driver.

Stephen Warren, Marek Vasut and I am trying to figure out, why USB 
Ethernet driver is broken since the stated commit. One assumption of 
Stephen Warren was that is has something to do with mtd or ubifs. That's 
why I am reporting this.

That's right. I already reported the problem to Stephen Warren.

Seems so. Maybe I will revert the patches from Stephen Warren to the 
commit where my USB Ethernet driver worked well and apply the mtd, ubi, 
ubifs patches for testing.
