The sysfs name is ultimately based on the superblock id (sb->s_id), which afaik should reflect the underlying device and thus be unique. Just to be sure, do you otherwise have a mounted and functional sysfs dir? I assume after this boot you have a mounted 'sda' device somewhere.. If so, what content already exists under the sysfs fs/xfs/sda subdir when the duplicate warning occurs? Has the associated device been mounted/unmounted before this occurs, or is there anything abnormal going on during boot up, such as device repartitioning, devices coming and going, etc..? What does 'mount' show for this system when the problem occurs vs. when it doesn't? It might be useful to post the full boot log for when this occurs as well.
