Do Fedora kernels have either of these bugs?
If so what are the prospects for fixing them?
Are there any protective measures available
short of using a different type of file system?
Meanwhile, a 64 bit netinst TC7 has been running

Fedora kernels did have the suspect kernels but you had to mount the
filesystems with a set of non standard mount options to actually have
the corruption. All users using ext4 filesystems in a sane way on
Fedora would never have hit these issues. It ended up being a some
what storm in a tea cup.
