Hmm, yes, I think b_error ought to be zero on the way into this
function.

That *particular* ASSERT I think is the pointless result of
overeagerness on my part. :)

But yes, the rest of them ought to be as you say.  We never want the
situation where the read caller passes in bufops A but it really has
bufops B.

TBH since ASSERTs disappear in CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=n mode, maybe we should
complain a little louder about this sort of misprogramming?  I'll look
into doing something like...

void
xfs_buf_confirm_ops(bp, ops)
{
	bool	wrong_ops = ops && bp->b_ops != ops;

	if (!wrong_ops)
		return;
	WARN_ON(wrong_ops, "Metadata verifier mismatch at %pS",
			__return_address;
	xfs_force_shutdown(...);
}

Will fix, thanks for the review!
