Did it in private IRC (the advantage of working for the same division of
the same company!)
I didn't realise the original fix was actually implemented to allow
Bernd, with a different Areca controller, to boot... obviously, in that
situation, reversion is wrong, since that would just replace one won't-
boot situation with another.
Unless there is very simple fix the commit should reverted, imho. It
would better then to remove write-same support from the md-layer.
I'm not using md on that machine, just LVM. Our suspicion is that ext4
is doing a WRITE SAME for some reason.
I didn't check yet for other cases, mkfs.ext4 does WRITE SAME and with
lazy init it also will happen after mounting the file system, while lazy
init is running (inode zeroing).
Cheers,
Bernd
