From: Carlos Carvalho Subject: why has "fix ext4_ext_remove_space tree traversal" not been applied?

In particular, patch 9, "fix ext4_ext_remove_space tree traversal" is not there. We're getting hit by the null pointer dereference in our main file servers. What's the situation of this patch? Any reason it's not applied?
