Huh. This looks like a normal deleted file... just to ensure we're sane,
what's the output of:
debugfs -R 'ls <7913865>' /dev/md2
debugfs -R 'ncheck 7913865' /dev/md2
Hoping 7913865 -> /ext/backup/atlas/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/imlib2/filters

By any chance did you save the e2fsck logs?
Digging through the e2fsck source code, the only way an inode gets marked used
is if i_link_count > 0 or ... badblocks thinks the inode table block is bad.
What does this say?
debugfs -R 'stat <1>' /dev/md2

In theory we can use debugfs to clear the directory and then run e2fsck to
clean up, but let's sanity-check the world before we resort to that. :)
