Tried the attached patch but it changed nothing, I trying to create a new file as a user whose quota grace time has ran out will still cause everything accessing the users homedir (the one with the quota) to hang in D state.
Also note that the bug I reported only exists when acl is also enabled (does not have to be used). And although my kernel is not built with debug (or reiserfs debug) support, I don't get any oopses or reiserfs errors.. it just hangs.
