Hi Ben, > If there are any fixes available for important or higher severity bugs > that I've missed, please let me know
I'm not sure where to find the fixes already included with the package you plan to upload soon, but there is one important fix missing according to the changelog you included with your mail. AIUI, the data corruption caused by unwritten and delayed extents is a different issue. 3.16.7-ckt11, like many other recent stable kernel updates, includes the patch "md/raid0: fix bug with chunksize not a power of 2." which causes wrong files to be TRIMmed when enabling discard or running fstrim on a raid0 setup. That is, random files are suddenly filled with zeroes instead of their original content when deleting files from the file system. This has already caused severe data loss on various Arch systems, and probably Fedora too. Ubuntu have reverted that patch for their -ckt11 upload to utopic. There is now a patch fixing the regression in Linus' tree, but not in -ckt11. See kernel bugzilla: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=98501 Debian bug report (cloned from the delayed extents issue): https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=786372 I'm sorry for the noise if your package already includes that patch (or reverts the chunksize-not-a-power-of-2-patch).
