@kent: Thank you for the patch. Indeed it fixes the ext4 lockup I've seen.
I've applied it to my tree, under the branch block-mpage-bvecs-for-next.
See 0d2e05525a58 ("fs/ext4: fix a lockup when writing blocks into ext4
rootfs") <https://github.com/dongsupark/linux/commit/0d2e05525a58>.

After that of course, more bugs start to appear, e.g. crash with virtio-blk,
like we'd have opened a can of worms. ;-)

@ming: I guess you managed to see this error as you're testing with a
SCSI device, not virtio-blk device like me.
Are you seeing it without any back traces?
Does the attached patch fix your issue?
(This is already included in the branch block-mpage-bvecs-for-next.)

Thanks,
Dongsu

Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: use a correct function for bvec iteration in
 btrfs_csum_one_bio()

Commit 94607a8a("block: Convert various code to bio_for_each_page()")
introduced a critical bug in btrfs_csum_one_bio() using
bio_for_each_page_all() for iterating through each bvec.
That should actually call bio_for_each_page() to take the current
offset into account. Without this fix, xfstests/btrfs/012 would
end up with lockup with warnings in btrfs_add_ordered_sum(), because
iter.bi_size becomes < 0.
