If it can help, I add the exactly same behaviour: filesystem remounted
read-only with the same messages in dmesg and had to fsck it with a
3.1 kernel when I resized my ext4/lvm root fs.

I used kernel 3.3-rc6 from debian experimental amd64.
root fs remounted read-only with the same errors in dmesg after:
lvresize -L +5G /dev/mapper/perceval_vg1-root
resize2fs /dev/mapper/perceval_vg1-root

Rebooting on 3.3 or 3.2 kernel doesn't helped. Also tried to boot on
3.0 and 2.6.x from rescue CDs without success (fsck ok, mounting
without problem but fs remounted ro as soon as I boot on 3.2 or 3.3
kernel).
I had to install a 3.1 kernel boot on it to be able to finaly reboot on 3.3.

I use a single harddrive without any sort of raid and with one lvm pv
and one vg:
sudo fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
