Actually it looks like corrupt data to me: some page's LSN field
contains a value that is past the actual end of WAL, and therefore
isn't a correct copy of the location of the last WAL record affecting
that page, as it's supposed to be.

Could have resulted from a hardware error, but it's hard to tell.
