Sorry, it's gone. However, I just recompiled it and the size of the
function is now 0x105f, and the offset 0xd42 matches with a call to
release_metapage. So with this new address, it's this call:

$ addr2line -e vmlinux -i c02e428d
fs/jfs/jfs_metapage.h:101
fs/jfs/jfs_xtree.c:3723

...which is this one:

    /* invalidate empty leaf page */
    discard_metapage(mp);


With your two patches applied, I now got this:

ERROR: (device loop0): remounting filesystem as read-only
blkno = 200000687, nblocks = f
ERROR: (device loop0): dbFree: block to be freed is outside the map

You can also have a copy of my scripts if you want to try to reproduce
it locally. But I don't mind testing either :-)
