Hi,

I'm using raid0 under 2.2.16pre4 and I've just started observing a new
failure mode that's completely preventing it from working: getblk(),
and therefore refill_freelist(), is being called with a size greater
than PAGE_SIZE.  This is triggered by e2fsck on the /dev/md0, and it's
probably been a while since the last e2fsck, so I don't know when the
was actually introduced.
getblk() with blocksize > PAGE_SIZE is completely illegal.  Are you
using a decent set of raid patches?

Cheers,
 Stephen
