Thanks for trying it out. I have only used it on a custom arm-based board. I have done quite a lot of writing with and without metadata flag and have also tried to trigger errors that require journal recovery. It has worked well but of course it is hard to be sure that the code will handle every case.

I've initially put this in a local branch and run the fs tests on sandbox both with default options and forcing metadata_csum to be enabled, and it worked in both cases. Thanks for posting the patch! Can you let us know on what systems you've tested this?
