Yes, you are right. At the point where it is being applied, all the 
things can't be reverted back as XFS does not store the "before-image". 
However, typically in most of such cases, XFS goes ahead with shutting 
down the filesystem assuming these to be catastrophic or incorrigible 
errors requiring manual intervention.
