We're desperately looking for a reliable reproduction case for this problem.
My suggestion at this point is if you have a large filesystem (the reports for
this seem to come from users with > 1TB filesystems) to take a periodic e2image
backup of your filesystem before the corruption, and save it on some other
filesystem so there is a backup of your filesystem metadata. This will help
recover the filesystem after the corruption.
If you can reproduce this reliably, please let us know. We haven't been able
to get this problem reproduced yet.
