It's good thing I archive all my ext4 testing kernels.  :-)

On 3.9, I find that the current version of ext4/306 and my patched version
yield the same failure - each test hangs uninterruptably in the umount.  Is
that what you were expecting?  Stack backtraces for the patched version
follow, and closely resemble those seen for the current version.

Thanks,
Eric
