Thank you for the very detailed information you provided.  Unfortunately I
can't reproduce this problem in my environment.  That environment is, however,
somewhat different from yours, in that it's a 2.6.26 kernel plus ext4 patches
up to March 16 (minus a few patches that depended on changes in other parts of
the kernel).

My suggestion is that you drop back to the March 16 (or so) kernel and see if
you can reproduce the problem.  If you can't reproduce it then you can do a
binary search to see where the problem started, i.e. try an April 15 kernel,
etc., until you home in on the offending commit.

If you _can_ reproduce the problem with the March 16 kernel then something more
complex is going on and I'll have to try again to reproduce it here.
