What about the case where we are rebuilding to this disk and then get
a failure, doesn't this prevent the serial number from getting
updated?

The metadata expectation, as far as I can tell, is in-metadata-serial
!= serial-retrieved-from-disk.  So if it gets mutated twice what harm
does that cause?
