Am seeing errors with systems using ext2. First machine is a plan old x86
using initramfs. Console output looks like;

Probably from the ext2 reservations stuff. Any chance you could back out:

ext2-reservations.patch
ext2-reservations-fix.patch
ext2-reservations-sequential-read-regression-fix.patch
ext2-reservations-filesystem-bogus-ENOSPC-with-reservation-fix.patch
ext2-reservations-ext3_clear_inode-avoid-kfree-null.patch
ext2-reservations-multile-block-allocate-little-endian-fixes.patch
ext2-reservations-mark-group-descriptors-dirty-during-allocation.patch
ext2-reservations-nuke-noisy-printk.patch
ext2-reservations-bring-ext2-reservations-code-in-line-with-latest-ext3.patch

and see if it goes away?

Else I shall pray that Val or Mingming is smarter than I am and can
see what went wrong ;-)

Thanks,

M.

(message repeats a lot)

I've not investigated yet what patches might be at fault.
