Oops, wrong task

** Description changed:

+ 
+ SRU Justification:
+ 
+ Impact: As mentioned by Ted Tso (see link below) there has been a data
+ corruption issue fixed in ext4 after 2.6.28.y was stopped.
+ 
+ Fix: A cherry pick from upstream from Ted's repo.
+ 
+ Testcase: unfortunately not clearly stated
+ 
+ ----
+ 
  I'm opening a separate report to track the following issue mentioned
  from Ted Ts'o
  
  https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/330824/comments/191
  
  "P.S. There is a known ext4 file system corruption bug which is fixed in
  the 2.6.30 mainline kernel and in 2.6.29.5. It was found after the
  stable kernel series stopped updating for 2.6.28, but I do carry a fix
  for it in my for-stable-2.6.28 branch of the ext4 git tree, located
  here:
  
          git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git 
for-stable-2.6.28
          
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tytso/ext4.git;a=shortlog;h=for-stable-2.6.28
  
  (This is where it's handy to have a file system specialist working at
  the distribution; when I found the problem, I was able to contact Eric
  and he made sure the patch was quickly dropped into the F11 kernel.)"
