Hi Greg,

Commit 7dac4a1726a9 ("ext4: add validity checks for bitmap block
numbers") seems to be the cause of the regression reported here:

https://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=152416385122029&w=2

ext4 folks are probably busy at LSF, so no reply yet. Should this
commit be held until we get word from Ted?

Please excuse broken threading.

Thanks,

Ilya

It's already been removed from all of the stable queues and a -rc2
pushed out for every tree. Happened earlier this morning, my timezone
:)
