Severity: serious
Tags: upstream

systemd's CI detected a regression in ext4 in 6.16.1, that is reported
to be easily reproducible:
<https://lore.kernel.org/all/3d7f77d2-b1f8-4d49-b36a-927a943efc2f@heusel.eu/>.

As discussed in today's meeting
<https://salsa.debian.org/kernel-team/meetings/-/wikis/20250820>, this
seems to be a blocker for uploading 6.16.x to unstable.
