I only have limited experience with kernel programming and it
was not related to the filesystems / HDs.

I really suggest that you submit this to the kernel mailing list
yourself since those guys will probably want to ask questions.
There is a FAQ at: http://www.tux.org/lkml/

You might want to add something in the crontab that makes
an "efsck_ext2" cure periodically (I would suggest < 1/2  of the
typical crash time).

It is very likelly you will end up doing that low level format ;-)

Good luck.
