SubjectCONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 no space left on device
From
To reduce kernel size, I disabled both CONFIG_EXT2_FS and
CONFIG_EXT3_FS, and enabled CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23.

Unfortunately the system behaves badly afterwards. It seems the file system
is considered full: new files can be created, but no data can be written.
Note that the file system is almost full, but root can still write more data
using the real ext3 filesystem driver.

This is a v3.13-rc1-ish kernel.

Diff of dmesg and output of a few operations below:
