So, it's the kernel, not my laptop. No one else has reported any problems to date, and there are only two changes in ext4 code between v4.4.7 and v4.4.8, neither of which seem at all likely to cause file system corruption. ee8516a ext4: ignore quota mount options if the quota feature is enabled 321299a ext4: add lockdep annotations for i_data_sem If you can send us the "EXT4-fs error" message that would have been logged before the file system went read-only, or the output from e2fsck, that might be helpful in matching up your report from any others, or to have some insight into what might have happened. Unfortunately, without any more information there's not much we can do with your report other than to keep an ear out in case anyone else complains.
