-Re-deploying the Ubiquiti Unifi UAP-Pro with OpenWRT (instead of Unifi) at the new base-camp revealed a problem: it simply didn't work anymore. No DHCP reaction, no default IP, nothing. Except for the LED blinking white after a reset, it seemed completely broken. After opening and attaching a terminal to the serial console, the boot output didn't look promising but at least it wasn't completely dead. So we had to get our hands dirty, pop the hood and hack around to fix this jffs2 corruption issue and revive the AP without costly and probably long/painful RMA.

Maybe this knowledge can help you too.
