If it's a small number of bad blocks and they are not increasing over
time; you can stomp over them which in most cases will cause the drive
to reallocate them (Reallocated_Sector_Ct) and then you can run
xfs_repair to fix any filesystem nasties.
Chances are though some of the errors are in data blocks. I have a
perl script somewhere to find which file contain(s) a given blocks
(basically xfs_bmap on all files for agiven volume and scan this).
I'll have to see where I put it if you want it.
