Have you tried using the xfsqa regression test suite?  Despite the
name, it will work on non-xfs filesystems (although there are some
XFS-specific tests in the test suite.)  Both the btrfs and ext4
developers use it to debug their file systems, and it's a good way of
stressing the file system in all sorts of different ways that might
not be seen during normal desktop usage.  I suspect it would be a good
way of flushing out potential problems for reiserfs as well.
