Slight impedence mismatch in that we set the callback unconditionally
(assuming crc=1) but we only get to this call if needsrepair is set.

This looks like it calls back into the writeback hook before it's been
cleared. I'm guessing the xfs_sb_version_needsrepair() check above cuts
off any recursion issues, but it might be cleaner to clear the callback
pointer first.

Doesn't appear we can get here with bp == NULL. Otherwise the rest looks
reasonable to me.
