Hi Michael - have you got any idea what the files are that are
hitting this? This failure is implying that the inode is still dirty
after syncing all the data. Is something trying to modify it while
XFS is trying to map it?

We've seen this occasionally in the past, but we've never been able
to reproduce it with any reliability.  Hence any information you can
extract would certainly help us here.

Cheers,

Dave.
