The first question you have to get to the bottom of is if there are
only 2238 extents in the file, why is the xfs_bmap output showing
more than that?

Which implies memory corruption. Have you turned on memory poisoning
and the memory leak detection to see if it detects any problems?

What about running with CONFIG_XFS_DEBUG=y? Does that trip any
problems sooner than the corruption is detected?
