Ohh i ment to say blocks beyond i_disk_size due to aborted truncate.

crash is not required.
I use proposed xfsqa tests from the bug, may be i've changed some 
numbers, but core idea stays the same.
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt
fsstress ..... &
sleep 300; killall -9 fsstress
umount /mnt
fsck -f /dev/sdb1
After you have spotted the mistypo i've add explicit fault injection 
--- a/fs/ext4/extents.c
+++ b/fs/ext4/extents.c
@@ -98,9 +98,15 @@ static int ext4_ext_truncate_extend_restart(handle_t
>> > *handle,                                            int needed)
 {
        int err;
+       static int fault = 0;

        if (!ext4_handle_valid(handle))
                return 0;
+       if (inode->i_size % 1234 == 0 && fault++ % 2) {

+               dump_stack();
+               return -EAGAIN;
+       }

And i've got complain from fsck about incorrect i_size which should be
increased due to block beyond i_disk_size as expected.
And when i've fixed the mistypo i've had different complain due to
bitmap  difference.
