--- Comment #7 from Markus K=C3=B6nigshaus <m.koenigshaus@wut.de> ---
Addition: I have identified the code that generates the underflow:
cancel_dirty_page in mm/truncate.c. To reproduce the error, you can per=
form the
following change:

[...]
if (mapping && mapping_cap_account_dirty (mapping)) {
++WARN_ON ((int) global_page_state(NR_FILE_DIRTY) <0);
dec_zone_page_state (page, NR_FILE_DIRTY);
[...]

Test result:

The error only occurs when the Kernel Asynchronous I/O is used. Without=
 AIO I
get no error.
