            Bug ID: 219283
           Summary: kernel regression with ext4 and ea_inode mount flags
                    and exercising xattrs (between Linux 6.8 and 6.11)
           Product: File System
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: ext4
          Assignee: fs_ext4@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: colin.i.king@xxxxxxxxx
        Regression: No

dmesg showing lockup

exercising xattr with stress-ng on ext4 when it's been created with ea_inode
option causes a kernel hang.

Kernel: 6.11.0-7, AMD64 virtual machine 8 thread virtual machine (important,
must be multiple CPU threads to trigger the regression)
20GB virtio drive on /dev/vdb, 1 partition /dev/vdb1

sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdb1 -O ea_inode
sudo mount /dev/vdb1 /mnt

git clone https://github.com/ColinIanKing/stress-ng
cd stress-ng
make clean; make -j $(nproc)

sudo ./stress-ng --xattr 8 -t 120 --vmstat 1 --file-path /mnt

..wait a couple of minutes, you will see that the number of running processes
is not 8 as expected (from the --vmstat output of stress-ng)

cannot ^C stop stress-ng because of a kernel lockup, use another tty and check
dmesg, I get the following:

NOTE: this works fine for Linux 6.8.0, so this looks like a regression for
6.11.0

Attached is the full kernel log.
