I'm currently running with two ext4 patches:

Subject: ext4: fix metadata checksum calculation for the superblock

Author: Darrick J. Wong <darrick.wong@xxxxxxxxxx>

Subject: ext4: Don't verify checksums of dx non-leaf nodes during fallback linear scan

They appear to fix real problems.  I notice, that neither of these have
made it into 2.6.5.  Should they be sent to -stable at some point?

I'm not trying to overrule your judgements on the matter, just ensure that
the omission is actually a conscious decision rather than an oversight.
