Yeah, thanks for pointing that out. Clearly I must have been
sleep-deprived, since I had managed to convince myself we'd only end
up in this situation when the inode had been deleted (as opposed to
the situation where there's so much memory pressure that we're pushing
out an inode that still has writebacks pending).
Let's try for patch #3:

Subject: [PATCH -v3] ext4: handle writeback of inodes which are being freed
The following BUG can occur when an inode which is getting freed when
it still has dirty pages outstanding, and it gets deleted (in this
because it was the target of a rename). In ordered mode, we need to
make sure the data pages are written just in case we crash before the
rename (or unlink) is committed. If the inode is being freed then
when we try to igrab the inode, we end up tripping the BUG_ON at
fs/ext4/page-io.c:146.
To solve this problem, we need to keep track of the number of io
callbacks which are pending, and avoid destroying the inode until they
have all been completed. That way we don't have to bump the inode
count to keep the inode from being destroyed; an approach which
doesn't work because the count could have already been dropped down to
zero before the inode writeback has started (at which point we're not
allowed to bump the count back up to 1, since it's already started
getting freed).
Thanks to Dave Chinner for suggesting this approach, which is also
used by XFS.
