Hi Eric,

I agree that this feature is very useful when some hardware or
software problems make a bad CRC value. But is this patch a completed
patch?

For example, flist_find_ftyp is created by this patch, by I can't find
where is it called in this patch.

I checked your original V1 patch:
https://www.marc.info/?l=linux-xfs&m=142662442506252&w=3

It has more content than this. Should I read/merge this patch with
other patches together?

Thanks,
Zorro
