Since no working fix has been provided to the Linux Kernel mailing list
that is very doubtful (did you check the /usr/share/doc/... directory?):
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0212.0/0012.html

It only affects "journal" mode. If you use the default ("ordered") mode
you're safe.

I suspect 2.4.21 won't be far away.
