Heh. I suppose we could either invert the logic or perhaps try to come
up with a better keyword than "health" for the exported bits (at least).
If I see ag_health in a data structure, for example, I'm assuming it's
telling me what is healthy. Of course we'll have documentation and
whatnot to clear that up..

Another term that came to mind is "fault" or "faulted" as it has
precedent in storage contexts wrt to raid. I.e., ag_faults and
XFS_AG_GEOM_FAULT_AGF, etc. etc. To me it also kind of covers the angle
that we aren't necessarily stating a subset of the filesystem is healthy
due to lack of faults if we just haven't scrubbed/found anything. Hm? I
guess it could be confused with reporting underlying storage problems. I
dunno... it's more clear to me, but maybe others have ideas..
