The bug in the error handling code is fixed in commit 66a4cb187, which
will be in 3.15.  I should have split apart the bug fix from the
general cleanup, to make it easier to backport to older kernels.  At
the time, I didn't realize that the bug was getting hit so often.

Also, after the system rebooted, what messages if any did e2fsck
report?
