--- Comment #1 from Theodore Tso <tytso@....edu> ---
The failure is inside kmalloc(), which implies that the internal slab data
structures were corrupted (i.e., caused by a double free, buffer overrun,
etc.).  So the bug might not be in ext4 --- it's just that ext4 happened to
trip over the corrupted data structures.

Can you reproduce the crash at all?
