Indeed Christoph made a good go through and we appreciate this. We have
addressed most of his requests. I'll just cite the latest UBIFS submit
mail (http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121180458401234&w=2):

* Requests from Christoph Hellwig's review (may be found here:
  http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121093446502796&w=2). Few things
  related to the background thread were not done though. Here are
  explanations why: http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121155640026661&w=2
  and http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121119680522445&w=2 (see end
  of the mail).
  Also, we have not changed readdir() implementation so far, but just
  put a comment that we cannot support NFS at the moment. However, we
  have an idea how to fix this, but need some comments from the community.
  We'll send a separate mail describing the problem and the possible
  solution shortly. Nevertheless, this should not be a blocker.

We are currently working on "state-less" (in Christoph's terminology)
readdir() implementation. Here is what we are doing:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121181030711128&w=2

Would be nice to get some comments on 2 possible issues which will
be present in the new implementation.
