For both of these things I'm left wondering; why does this particular
location need to have XBF_DONE cleared after the verifier error?  Most
other locations that mark errors don't do this.

xfs_inode_buf_verify does, but for readahead purposes:

 * If the readahead buffer is invalid, we need to mark it with an error and
 * clear the DONE status of the buffer so that a followup read will re-read it
 * from disk.

Also, what problem does setting the pointer to NULL solve?
