Nod on the needle in a hay stack if it bmbt is really corrupt.

I am running fsstress from xfstests with the top commit 9b7f704, and I 
don't see any newer fsstress patches since then.

I moved the test to another box with a kdump that works on top of tree 
Linux and grabbed a vmcore. I grabbed a metadata dump of the filesystem 
after the ASSERT. That should give some idea of what inode/block it was 
looking up.

I sent email to Namjae when I first tripped over this problem in late 
April. No longer on the face of the earth and I can't look at this until 
the weekend.
