hm so ext4's inode cache got overwritten, indicative of memory corruption
but hard to know how it happened; it's not necessarily (maybe even likely)
an ext4 bug... not quite sure how to track it down though.
Also the M taint indicates:
5: 'M' if any processor has reported a Machine Check Exception,
' ' if no Machine Check Exceptions have occurred.
so something may have gone wrong before this.
