I couldn't shrink the filesystem, because I couldn't mount it because
of the bug. The filesystem was large and I was in desparate need of
some spare diskspace. At first, I was going to completely get rid of
it, but then I thought you might want to have a look at the
superblock, or some othe block, or whatever else to analyze the bug.
Since the bug was some sort of initialization issue, I finally decided
to keep the first 500 MB of the filesystem and reclaimed the rest of
it (by shrinking the partition).

And all that had happened *before* I posted the bug report on this mailing list.

Luckily, when I tried to mount the "broken" filesystem today, the
nilfs driver exposed the very same oops again. I applied your
patch/recompiled the kernel and the oops disappeared.

So, no. I didn't use any nilfs-resize. And those IO error are pretty
much expected to me.
