It seems that you are running in to several problems related to
discard_page_buffers_no_lock in write_end. The problems had been
fixed by following patches [ext4: avoid potential hang in
mpage_submit_io() when blocksize < pagesize], [ext4: correctly handle
pages w/o buffers in ext4_discard_partial_buffers()] and [ext4: handle
EOF correctly in ext4_bio_write_page()]. The patches had been merged
to rc6.
