Am I correct to assume that this would ONLY affect systems that include a

It affects all file systems when used with discard on a raid0 device. It
is not a bug specific to ext4[1]. If you do not use raid0 with discard
you are fine.

UUgh, dumb question, but... I have not used/configured this "discard", but I do
have 6 Raid0 arrays spinning on my Arch server. Does this corruption potentially
apply to me? Is this "discard" something that would be enabled by default? I
have never heard of it, so that is the only thing to that concerns me. From the
kernel thread, the fix is out on 5/22. What do I do to test whether I suffered
corruption?
