I've done a few dirty reboots on the laptop that was showing the problem
(trying to intentionally blow things up by rebooting in the middle of a
kernel compile), and have yet to see the kinds of problems I had
originally.
Instead of getting problems with "lookup()" finding deleted inodes, I get
orphan cleanup during recovery, and the filesystem looks ok. I get
truncated files in the compile (and need to remove the bad *.o files),
but that's what I'd _expect_ from killing the machine in the middle of a
compile.
So I think you nailed it with the revert.
