Would you please provide some kind of high level description for this
stuff. What is the problem at hand, how is it solved. Right off-the top
of my head I have the following comment.

Adding more fields to 'struct ubi_wl_entry' should be well-justified.
These objects are per-PEB, so there may be really a lot of them, and
they may consume a lot of memory. Increasing the size of the object may
be affect the memory consumption a lot.

So I wonder if these read counters solve a big enough problem, so that
they are worth having in this data structure.

So I am really missing the bigger picture here.
