AFAIK, unfortunately there is no simple counter, crash needs to parse sbitmap
structures to count them.  (please let us know if there is a simpler solution.)
Currently Sergey has worked on adding sbitmap function [1], and we plan to make
use of it after merging the patch.  It may take some time, so Lianbo's patch is
a temporary workaround for the error.

Maybe it was better to write the status on the commit log..
