@Mikael,
Have you seen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/445852 and in particular entry 68?
I was seeing similar errors even after applying the patches on my Asus 900. After I discovered that I had a lot of bad blocks on sdb I did the following-
Boot from USB or SD into an distro which doesn't exhibit the fault (I used crunchbang) then
1 Copied all data (including hidden files to USB sticks)
2 zeroed the drive
3 create & format a new partition
4 copied data back
5 modified /etc/fstab for the new UUID of /home
You may have to chown, /home, I didn't as there is the same username with uid on both.

The errors stopped, touch wood no lasting damage has been done.
