I guess this happens only when you do a power cut? I need to look
closer, but quick feed-back is that there is probably a bug in the
journal reply - when we see a deleted inode in the journal - we remove
it from TNC, and we probably forget to look-up for all its xattrs?
Really need to look closer.

Would you prepare a description how I could reproduce this?

Please, go ahead with submitting your older patches, do not cook them
forever in your tree. Then you may start working on other issues.
