Dear Heiko Schocher,
updating an ubi partition needs a completely erased mtd partition, see: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-mtd/2011-May/035416.html
So, add partubi alt setting for the dfu_alt_info environment variable to mark this partition as an ubi partition. In case we update an ubi partition, we erase after flashing the image into the partition, the remaining sektors.

This patch is also a good starting point to fix up updating ubi, as we currently use "nand erase" for erasing the sektors. This is not the prefered way for writing an ubi image, see: http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/faq/ubi.html#L_flash_img
This must be fixed ... we have no "ubiformat" in u-boot, or?
changes for v2:
- do not use spread = 1 for nand_erase_opts, to prevent errormessage if there are bad blocks in the erase range.

Are you not leaking memory here ? I suspect you should call dfu_free_buf() as below ?
Yes, fixed. Thanks!
