Great!  I haven't been able to reproduce it myself, but I was using a
very quick test case on small toy filesystem.  My ext4 root filesystem
is 100% extent based files --- and this bug is only happening on
old-style files with indirect-block-style inodes.  And I'm trying to
get things done before leaving for a family reunion on Friday, so I
just don't have the time to set up a reproducer.

Can you verify whether or not my patch fixes things for you?

Thanks, regards,
