I've tried this patch now, but I still can't get a solid reproducer
(one that doesn't involve using aarch64).
I just tried to create a filesystem on kernel 4.6.0, grow it on 4.6.0,
then copy it to another machine with 4.4.4. However that didn't
reproduce the bug, so I couldn't verify if the patch fixes the bug.
(Maybe 4.4.4 is too new?)
Can you help me to understand under what circumstances this bug would
appear, as far as you understand what's happening?
Rich.
