I'm not seeing it in linux-next. A reasonable short term work around
is mount option 'metadata_ratio=1' and that's what needs more testing,
because it seems decently likely mortal users will need an easy work
around until a fix gets backported to stable. And that's gonna be a
while, me thinks.

Is that mount option sufficient? Or does it take a filtered balance?
What's the most minimal balance needed? I'm hoping -dlimit=1

I can't figure out a way to trigger this though, otherwise I'd be
doing more testing.
