OK, this is a red herring, these were files from the lost+found on the root
filesystem, so xfs_repair removed its lost+found to start with, so it was
not finding anything wrong really.

This basically says that after cloning a root the lost+found directory in
the xfs filesystem needs to be cleaned.
