This may be an fsck problem, hard to tell.  I consistently have
problems with journal recovery after hard reboot when filesystem has
metadata_csum.   Interestingly, no problems with 64-bit filesystems.

These are test file systems I hope.  metadata_csum is something where
we're still working out some of the bugs.  (Obviously)

So metadata_csum works fine with 64-bit file systems, but it is
failing with journal recovery if the 64-bit file system feature is not
enabled?  Is that a correct summary of what you are seeing?

Also, with e2fsprogs 1.43-WIP releases, it's important that you
specify the git commit id you are using, since the next branch in
particular is quite fast moving.
