Unless you are specifically using e2defrag (or write code which explicitly calls this ext4-specific ioctl), the code path in question wouldn't even be entered, and I see nothing in this stack trace to indicate it was caused by this change. (And in fact in a subsequent e-mail I see that you've tried reverting both changes to ext4 between rc1 and rc2 and it didn't seem to help.) Have you tried bisecting the kernel to find commit which introduced this problem? What was the last kernel that didn't have these problem for you? -rc1? How easy is this to reproduce? Does this happen as soon as you boot up your system?
