------- Comment #2 from tytso@....edu  2008-12-26 06:16 -------
What does e2fsck report when you try running e2fsck on the filesystem?   Most
of the errors indicate filesystem corruption which e2fsck should have
complained vociferously about, and which it should have been able to fix if run
manually.

I can't tell how big the filesystem is (I'd need the output of dumpe2fs
/dev/hdXXX) to detect that, but this:

[92499.263311] Buffer I/O error on device dm-2, logical block 522133279

Indicates either a hardware error, or a corrected journal inode.   In the
latter case, e2fsck would have detected the problem, and offered to fix it.  In
the former case, this isn't a kernel bug, but rather a hardware problem....
