Apparently it crashes in ext3_sync_fs because EXT3_SB(sb)->s_journal is NULL.

At first I thought it was an issue with the byteswapped IDE bus on Atari (a
new and different solution to handle this just went into mainline), but if I
disable CONFIG_EXT3 support, it boots up fine.

Is this a known problem?

I can confirm this as a regression.  You don't even need to mount it

Thanks for confirming!

as a root filesystem, or do this on an 68k system.  On my x86 system,

That's all I had available for a quick test ;-)
