hm, not being an XFS hacker, i'd say: yes, indeed. unmounting & mounting
an XFS here gives:
prinz kernel: XFS mounting filesystem sda8
prinz kernel: Ending clean XFS mount for filesystem: sda8
these "ending XFS recovery" seem to result from "XLOG_RECOVERY_NEEDED"
as seen in fs/xfs/xfs_log_recover.c.
can you boot from a xfs-aware bootdisk, an then try xfs_check *before*
mounting the fs? then, after xfs_check exits (with no errors) you could
mount it again and see, if recovery is still needed.

i geuss that would be the cause then.

so, your problem does not rely on a specific kernel version.
