"xfs_log_force: error 5 returned." for drive that was removed.

[Joe Wendt]

Hello! This may be a silly question or an interesting one...

We had a drive fail in a production server, which spawned this error in the
logs:
XFS (sde1): xfs_log_force: error 5 returned.

The dead array was lazy-unmounted, and the drive was hot-swapped, but when
the RAID array was rebuilt, it came online as /dev/sdk instead of /dev/sde.

Now /dev/sde1 doesn't exist in the system, but we still see this message
every 30 seconds. I'm assuming a reboot will clear out whatever is still
trying to access sde1, but I'm trying to avoid that if possible. Could
someone point me in the direction of what XFS might still be trying to do
with that device?

lsof hasn't given me any clues. I can't run xfs_repair on a volume that
isn't there. I haven't been able to find anything similar yet online. Any
help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Joe
