I don't know if it is related, but I've had the following BUG on 2.6.20-rc4-mm1 (+ hot-fixes patches applied) :

-------------------
kernel BUG at fs/reiser4/plugin/item/extent_file_ops.c:973!

This is another problem than Zan's one. The attached patch should fix it.

Andrew, please apply.

remove_suid may open a transaction in reiser4 which is to be restarted
before entering into main write loop.

I'm pleased to confirm I wasn't able to reproduce the bug with your patch applied.
