Thanks. Reverting that patch also fixed it for me. I was able to do my
test however performance is down another 10% (compared to
ext4-patch-queue-52c8a02a8a7b7e5915b9301e9c171b4faf22b928). ext4 is getting
slower and slower :(

Also the group descriptors still get corrupted.

PS: http://repo.or.cz/w/ext4-patch-queue.git is empty, is that correct?
