One of the online repair gaps I haven't figured out how to close yet is
what to do when there's a short format directory that fails validation
(such that iget fails).  The inode repairer gets stuck with the job of
fixing the sf dir, but the (future) directory repair code will have all
the expertise in fixing directories.  Regrettably, it also requires a
working xfs_inode.

So I could just set the sf parent to some obviously garbage value (like
repair does) to make the verifiers pass and then trip the directory
repair, and then this hunk would be useful to have in the kernel.  OTOH
that means more special case flags and other junk, just to end up with
this kludge that sucks even for xfs_repair.

OTOH I have spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out how to kill
that stupid kludge of repair's, and come up emptyhanded, so <shrug>?
