That's disheartening to hear that your RBD images were corrupted -- do you have any more detail as to what happened? Enabling the object map is designed to flag the object map as invalid, so it won't be used as a reference for any IO ops until it is successfully rebuilt. Documentation of these new RBD features is definitely lacking and I've opened a tracker ticket to improve it [1].
