So the image has plenty of space:

but only 48 free inodes:

root@genericarmv8:~# df -i
Filesystem     Inodes IUsed  IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/root       34440 34392     48  100% /

ext3 image is much more sensible:

root@genericarmv8:~# df -i
Filesystem     Inodes IUsed  IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/root      293888 34392 259496   12% /

I understand that the E in OE is about embedded, but still only 48 free
inodes seems a bit too steep. I would presume the amount of free inodes
should be about the same for both ext3 and ext4.

Also fiddling with EXTRA_IMAGECMD_ext4 doesn't seem to have any effect,
so currently ext4 images are not very useful.

Try Robert Yang's patches which build ext4 using mkfs.ext4 and debugfs rather than genext2fs: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=robert/image
