These messages are not an actual error. These tests feed random values
into system calls, and using the bulkstat call it is attempting to
read inodes of the disk where there are no inodes. There is now code
in xfs to dump out the locations in the code where it finds metadata
errors. This one is a little bogus in this case.

Try the attached patch which shuts this particular warning up by
default.
