We're not taking the xattr_sem in ext4_find_inline_data() before we
call ext4_xattr_ibody_find(). So I think we need something like this:
diff --git a/fs/ext4/inline.c b/fs/ext4/inline.c
index 6b600b4..e96268d 100644
--- a/fs/ext4/inline.c
+++ b/fs/ext4/inline.c

error = ext4_xattr_ibody_find(inode, &i, &is);
+ up_read(&EXT4_I(inode)->xattr_sem);

goto out;
