Yep, I understand that it's rebalance.  It dies when rebalance finishes because an
open but unlinked file trips over the corrupted list from earlier, it seems.

I don't know why makecontext would matter...

Just to be sure, you are definitely loading the xfs module from the kernel you built, right, and you don't have a "priority" module getting loaded from elsewhere?  Seems unlikely, but just to be sure.

You could also add this patch to the xfs tracepoints to print more information about the inodes - the mode & flags.
