Subject: [ext4 BUG?] task pdflush:3880 blocked for more than 120 seconds

This bug exists both in mainline and ext4-patch-queue.

Procedures to reproduce it:
1. mkfs.ext4dev -I 256 -b 4096 -O extents /dev/sdb1
2. mount -t ext4dev -o delalloc /dev/sdb1 mnt_point/
3. run ffsb until filesystem is full and ffsb exits with failure
4. umount mnt_point

And then umount stuck at D state.

The output of ps:
