Indeed.

I'm not sure I'm following the problem...

The current patch makes the following change in xlog_do_recovery_pass():

@@ -3024,15 +3018,10 @@ xlog_do_recovery_pass(
 		if (error)
 			goto bread_err1;
 
-		if ((be32_to_cpu(rhead->h_version) & XLOG_VERSION_2) &&
-		    (h_size > XLOG_HEADER_CYCLE_SIZE)) {
-			hblks = h_size / XLOG_HEADER_CYCLE_SIZE;
-			if (h_size % XLOG_HEADER_CYCLE_SIZE)
-				hblks++;
+		hblks = xlog_logrecv2_hblks(rhead);
+		if (hblks != 1) {
 			kmem_free(hbp);
 			hbp = xlog_alloc_buffer(log, hblks);
-		} else {
-			hblks = 1;
 		}
 	} else {
 		ASSERT(log->l_sectBBsize == 1);

My question is: why can't we replace the xlog_logrecv2_hblks() call here
with xlog_logrec_hblks()? We already have rhead as the existing code is
already looking at h_version. We're inside a _haslogv2() branch, so the
check inside the helper is effectively a duplicate/no-op.. Hm?
