Hmm, since you seem to be able to reproduce the problem reliably, any
chance you can try bisecting the problem? I've looked at the commits
that touch fs/jbd2 and nothing is jumping out at me.

Also, how many CPU's do you have your system, and what kind of storage
device were you using when you were running iozone (5400rpm HDD,
7200RPM HDD, RAID array, SSD, etc.)?

I too have seen this.

My system is:

12 CPU Octeon (MIPS64)
Root is ext3, mounted via ext4fs on a slow CompactFlash/PIO6

I saw the crash when simply booting a fairly bare-bones Debian distro, although it is somewhat random:
.
.
ata3: PATA max PIO6 cmd 900000001d040000 ctl 900000001d05000d irq 63
.
.
ata3.00: CFA: CF 4GB, 20101001, max UDMA/133
ata3.00: 7847280 sectors, multi 0: LBA
ata3.00: configured for PIO6
.
.
scsi 2:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA CF 4GB 2010 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5
sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] 7847280 512-byte logical blocks: (4.01 GB/3.74 GiB)
sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Write Protect is off
sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
sda: sda1 sda2
sd 2:0:0:0: [sda] Attached SCSI disk
EXT4-fs (sda2): mounting ext3 file system using the ext4 subsystem
EXT4-fs (sda2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly on device 8:2.
.
.
.

I have not been able to get it to fail a second time. So for me bisecting might not work.
