Apparently, there's a data corruption issue in the EXT4 file system for multiple Linux kernel branches, affecting several mainstream distributions, including Arch Linux, Fedora, and Debian GNU/Linux.
Several Arch Linux users have already reported data loss after upgrading to Linux kernel 4.0.2, the latest version available in the main software repositories of the respective operating system, which has already been flagged as out-of-date since May 17, 2015.
However, the EXT4 data corruption issue has not been fixed in Linux kernel 4.0.3, nor Linux kernel 4.0.4, according to an Arch Linux user who reported problems with a RAID (redundant array of independent disks) configuration a couple of days ago on the official forums of the distribution.
