The problem is still present in 4.9.16:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/fs/ext4/super.c?h=linux-4.9.y#n3832

but is fixed in 4.10.x:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/fs/ext4/super.c?h=linux-4.10.y#n3847

But the patch from Theodore T'so was sent to <stable@vger.kernel.org>
making me think it would be applied to all stable branches and not just
the latest one. (Am I missing something here?)

I'd really like to see this fixed in Debian (and the LTS branch 4.9 in
general), because after doing some test upgrades in clones of some of my
older systems this problem shows up in 3 of 12 of them, breaking them
hard after the upgrade.

Grüße,
Sven.
