this_bh->b_blocknr is a sector_t, which could be 64-bits.  So this
should be:

			ext4_error(inode->i_sb, __func__,
				   "circular indirect block detected, "
				   "inode=%lu, block=%llu",
				   inode->i_ino,
				   (unsigned long long) this_bh->b_blocknr);

I think.

With this change, I've included your three patches into the ext4 patch
queue.
