Subject: fuzzy'ing a 3.10-rc7 gives warning ext4_da_update_reserve_space

I do regular fuzz testing of upcoming kernel versions.
So the following warning doesn't occurred at a productive system, but I never saw it before during tests :

The file system is 257 MB big (created at a file on a tmpfs) and then mounted
onto a directory accessible from a chrooted 32 bit Gentoo Linux.

In the man while that fs was overwritten however.
