 objects to delete nr=-2147483624

Hi everybody,

tonight my dmesg was flooded with mesages like 

vmscan: shrink_slab: ext4_es_scan+0x0/0x150 negative objects to delete nr=-2147483624

Is that an integer overflow happening in ext4?

It's the first time I see this message. Any help on how to debug/reprocude this
are appreciated. Please advice if you want me to investigate this.

Bestregards,
Marc Burkhardt
