Inside ext4_ext_shift_extents() function ext4_find_extent() is called without EXT4_EX_NOCACHE flag, which should prevent cache population. This leads to oudated offsets in the extents tree and wrong blocks afterwards. Patch fixes the problem providing EXT4_EX_NOCACHE flag for each ext4_find_extents() call inside ext4_ext_shift_extents function.
