You are right. It looks that during my testing there was some inconsistency between chunks state table which is verified inside pblk_line_was_written() and blk_bitmap which was read from emeta and is verified in pblk_line_smeta_start(). I'm living decision to maintainers whether we should keep this sanity check or not - it really just pass gracefully the result from pblk_line_smeta_start() where similar sanity check is present.
