unmap_buffer() calls mark_buffer_clean() calls refile_buffer() calls remove_inode_queue(), which is why we don't see this all the time.
However, refile_buffer() is only calling the remove_inode_queue() if the buffer disposition changes. I'm looking to see where we may be going wrong here --- the refile_buffer() is not atomic wrt. the bh->b_inode structures.
