We're not taking the xattr_sem in ext4_find_inline_data() before we
call ext4_xattr_ibody_find(). So I think we need something like this:
diff --git a/fs/ext4/inline.c b/fs/ext4/inline.c
index 6b600b4..e96268d 100644
--- a/fs/ext4/inline.c
+++ b/fs/ext4/inline.c
@@ -143,7 +143,9 @@ int ext4_find_inline_data(struct inode *inode)
if (error)
return error;
+ down_read(&EXT4_I(inode)->xattr_sem);
error = ext4_xattr_ibody_find(inode, &i, &is);
+ up_read(&EXT4_I(inode)->xattr_sem);
if (error)
goto out;
