This can be seen in the device name being garbage in the ext4_error message: Feb 26 20:11:18 didactylos kernel: [24848.293159] EXT4-fs error (device >fA ,\rE): ext4_map_blocks:582: inode #64881109: block 259531249: comm du: lblock 0 mapped to illegal pblock (length 1) Also, the BUG_ON in the timer.c:732 is caused by the timer function sb->s_err_report.function being zero. But this is initialized when the file system is mounted, and it's never changed by the ext4 code. So the bug looks like it could be anywhere in the kernel, and it was just that the memory that the wild pointer corruption happened to corrupt this time around was in ext4's data structure.
