ext4 mount fails with "resize inode not valid" after a reboot

[Ralf Hildebrandt]

With kernel 2.6.30-rc2-git6 and prior I am having problems mounting
ext4 partitions after reboot.

A successful mount looks like this:

/dev/cciss/c0d0p8 on /squid-cache0 type ext4 (rw,noexec,nodev,noatime,data=writeback,errors=panic)
/dev/cciss/c0d0p9 on /squid-cache1 type ext4 (rw,noexec,nodev,noatime,data=writeback,errors=panic)
/dev/cciss/c0d0p10 on /squid-data type ext4 (rw,noexec,nodev,noatime,data=writeback,errors=panic)

Dmesg reports:

During boot I get these errors (Resize inod not valid):

and the manual fsck reports:

WTF is going on? This hapens even when I just recreate the filesystem.
