Upon trying to roll out 6.3.3 to Fedora users, it seems that we have a
few hitting this reliabily with 6.3 kernels. It is certainly not all
users of XFS though, as I use it extensively and haven't run across it.
The most responsive users who can reproduce all seem to be running on
xfs filesystems that were created a few years ago, and some even can't
reproduce it on their newer systems.  Either way, it is a widespread
enough problem that I can't roll out 6.3 kernels to stable releases
until it is fixed.
