The ubi container has two volumes, the first is a squashfs, the second
volume an ubifs. The latter is mounted as an overlay.

Both I mount from the initramfs as follows (rom / overlay are empty in
the initramfs):

  mount -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime -t proc proc /proc || rescue_shell "proc"
  mount -o rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,noatime -t sysfs sysfs /sys || rescue_shell "sys"
  mount -o rw,nosuid -t devtmpfs devtmpfs /dev || rescue_shell "dev"

  ubiattach -m $(get_mtd_from_root_arg) /dev/ubi_ctrl || rescue_shell "attach"
  ubiblock --create /dev/ubi0_0 || rescue_shell || "block"

  mount -o ro -t squashfs /dev/ubiblock0_0 /rom || rescue_shell "mount rootfs"
  mount -o rw,noatime -t ubifs /dev/ubi0_1 /overlay || rescue_shell "mount rootfs_data"

  mkdir -p /overlay/upper || rescue_shell "mkdir upper"
  mkdir -p /overlay/work || rescue_shell "mkdir work"

  mount -o rw,noatime,lowerdir=/rom,upperdir=/overlay/upper,workdir=/overlay/work \
          -t overlay overlay /newroot || rescue_shell "mount overlay"

  mount --move /rom /newroot/rom || rescue_shell "move rootfs"
  mount --move /overlay /newroot/overlay || rescue_shell "move rootfs_data"

  mount --move /dev /newroot/dev || rescue_shell "move dev"
  mount --move /sys /newroot/sys || rescue_shell "move sys"
  mount --move /proc /newroot/proc || rescue_shell "move proc"

  exec switch_root /newroot /sbin/init

I use OpenWrt as a basis, replacing the kernel with a vanilla one.

The options used to generate the file systems are:

Squashfs:  -p 128KiB -m 2048 -s 512 -O 2048
Ubifs: -m 2048 -e 124KiB -c 4096 -F

That's how I trigger it, yes. Can reproduce it on any attempt.

Any more you need than the above mount script? A call to "mv somefile
somefile.back && reboot" on a fresh install is all I do.

Thanks

PS: Reverting 01ad3eb8a073 ("ovl: concurrent copy up of regular files")
as a dependency and the commit mentioned in Subject fix the issue for
me. Tested on v4.11-rc4 and next-20170327.
