s_blocksize_bits = 12,
s_blocksize = 4096,

And this is x86_64 so pagesize is also 4k. Unfortunately I cannot
re-mount the file system since it has been converted to btrfs. However
here are the options: rw,relatime,discard,stripe=32,data=ordered, these
have been taken from an analogous mount. This is how it's supposed to
have been created: mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -K -E nodiscard,lazy_itable_init=1
-O has_journal,large_file,resize_inode,sparse_super,uninit_bg

Since those values are from the system which supposedly created those,
here are the raw values form the ext4_sb_info->s_mount_opt* members:
s_mount_opt = 3892496400,
s_mount_opt2 = 2,

And from ext4_super_block->s_feature_*:

  s_feature_compat = 0,
  s_feature_incompat = 61267,
  s_feature_ro_compat = 0,

Why is UPTODATE and DIRTY set simultaneously. Don't they contradict each
other?

In this case blocksize == pagesize  :(
