Thanks for the pointing out the problem.  I though think the right way
of fixing this problem, though, instead of using the #ifdef
CONFIG_SMP, is to do this:

       if (percpu_counter_initialized(&EXT4_SB(sb)->s_freeclusters_counter))
       	  ...

I'll respin the "ext4: rearrange initialization to fix EXT4FS_DEBUG"
commit to include this fix and give you credit in the commit logs for
pointing out this issue.

Cheers,
