You could reproduce this easily if you mount -o nospace_cache and ran generic/273. This is because the caching thread stuff is still going and we were stopping all the worker threads. We need to stop the workers after this work is done, and the free block groups code will wait for all the caching threads to stop first so we don't run into this problem. With this patch we no longer panic.
