--- Comment #3 from edpeur@...il.com ---
Yes, the journal mode was 'data=ordered'.
This problem is reproduced on this external USB drive on my laptop using a
quite light workload.
It is not always reproducible and I had to change the way I work so I might not
be able to reproduce this bug in the near time.
There was another hang when shutdown tried to umount this drive:

I have upgraded to:
http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-3.13-1-amd64_3.13.5-1_amd64.deb

I have enabled 'data=writeback' now. So, I will report if I see this problem
again.
