I can relatively easily recreate this, see my thread on -current on the
17th July ("Filesystem wedge, SUJ-related?"), which (and the followup
emails) contain additional info. I'm currently trying to find the
commit responsible for introducing this, and have established that a
kernel from the 1st June does not seem to exhibit the same issue.
Tonight, I'll revert to a current -current and try to get the info you
need.
Thanks,
Gavin
