[Bug 396286] Re: [Geode LX] [OLPC] 2.6.31-generic: kernel panic near the end of initramfs

[Stefan Bader]

So both (ext3 and ext4) show the corruption messages when running with
v2, but v5 never hits them. For better understanding I am attaching the
diff between v2 and v5. As one can see there is no real change in that.
In __iget there is just a printk added for the case that
inode_check_acl() finds something. And all the changes to init_inode()
just query i_acl and i_default_acl, which usually are set in
inode_init_always(). There are just two cases where the acl values are
not initialized and in both the test in init_inde() should then return
NULL. And of course either way I would expect either a debug message
here or at least hitting the problem in destroy_inode(). But as soon as
this code is added, all problems go away. This is something I have a
hard time to explain.
