Hmm. Sounds odd. Are you running nfsd? That would explain why it happens on ext4 but not tmpfs: ext4 has a get_parent method that can get a disconnected entry, while tmpfs does not. That said, your load doesn't sound like it would actually ever trigger this, unless you just didn't mention that you also end up using that filesystem over nfs on another machine. So leave it running a while longer, but maybe it's 4bf46a272647 like Dominique suspects. Although I don't see how that could trigger anything either..
