Er, the two I posted most recently were on a kernel with your 4-patch
deadlock series applied:

98a9e36a ext4: propagate error values from ext4_inline_data_truncate()
50c39f0d ext4: avoid calling ext4_mark_inode_dirty() under unneeded semaphores
f321034b ext4: fix deadlock between inline_data and ext4_expand_extra_isize_ea()
5283ac14 ext4: add debug_want_extra_isize mount option

Are you referring to some other patches I should be looking for?

Yes, I know I'm tempting fate by keeping data I actaully care about (I
have backups of most of it, but reassembling it from those backups would
be most unpleasant) on a file system with experimental features enabled.

But *somebody* has to debug new features, and I've noticed that the fickle
goddess Glitch is most likely to make an appearance when She sees such
an offering.
