Hi Nick and Ted,
I ran some very basic test with 38-rc1 and my box run into error with
the message like:
slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `ext4_inode_cache': Can't free
all objects
Pid: 4395, comm: rmmod Not tainted 2.6.38-rc1 #1

The reproduce process is simple:just rmmod ext4 immediately after umount
an ext4 volume.
I have done some very simple investigation and it seems that with Nick's
new ext4_i_callback, even after we do ext4_destroy_inode, it isn't
freed. So after we destroy the ext_inode_cache, and when freeing the
inode, it errors. Hope it helps. If you have any fixes, I can test it.
Regards,
Tao
