I managed to trigger the checksum mismatch once now, after around 40
minutes, with a second run going for 20 minutes without mismatch.

So it's not easily reproducible for me, but it does help to rule out
at least some of the hardware specific theories -- it's not just the
Cortex-A72, nor the CCI doing something weird, as neither of
them are in use here.

This is the output I got:

EXT4-fs error (device vda2): ext4_lookup:1707: inode #1185501: comm
md5sum: iget: checksum invalid
Aborting journal on device vda2-8.
