Theodore Ts'o : As I'm not a expert with git, my previous results were wrong because I tested the "master" branch of git://github.com/tytso/ext4.git instead of the "ubuntu-330824-test" branch (shame on me). So I cloned your current git repository, checkout to branch "ubuntu-330824-test", then checkout to commit "18fde579ee7e5895a802e9e04a38c26f4c0ed351" (which is the same as dbf8b1c4e8122e705447b69aea9ee6ef3a9caa30 and which comes after the 9 ubuntu SAUCE patches you added) and then I built and tested the kernel AND I was able to reproduce the bug.
So unless I'm wrong, that proves exactly the opposite of what I said in my last comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/330824/comments/147 And that would also means that one of the 10 ubuntu SAUCE patches is the other commit that is necessary to cause this bug. I would probably need assistance to help identifying which of the ten commits is the good one since as long as I don't revert commit 18fde579ee7e5895a802e9e04a38c26f4c0ed351, it is not possible to revert previous commit without errors. I will probably try to revert some of these manually but if you have a better trick, I'll take it!
