Actually the Samsung implemented the UBI support on U-boot already and has used it internally. The big difference is the code base. It's based on kernel UBI code. Yes it's not fit well to u-boot ecosystem so it created the ubi wrapper for u-boot.
And how does NAND/OneNAND booting with UBI support fit into this? I assume that you have some size restrictions for the IPL/SPL on your platforms as well.

I want to know what's the better way if there are two code bases.
Please give any options and comments
As Josh already mentioned, your version might be better suited as a basis for mainline inclusion because its more feature complete and probably is for a newer U-Boot version.
So best would be to publish your UBI support too, then we can compare and decide where to go.
Thank you, Kyungmin Park
P.S., we will post the patches ASAP
Do you have a rough idea when you could publish your patches?
Thanks.
Best regards, Stefan
