Subject: 2.4.7-pre6 can't complete e2fsck

I've upgraded to 2.4.7-pre6aa1 and I'm seeing a strange behaviour:

e2fsck /dev/hda3 never finishes: I can't even stop the process with
CTRL+C. Alt+SysRQ works and it tells me that the number of inactive dirty
pages increases, while the active and free pages decrease.

Alt+SYSRQ+P says the kernel loops mainly in page_launder

Is there a patch to solve this problem?
