I didn't look at the source, but a new run of > xfs_repair detected nothing. xfs_repair/libxfs has caches for xfs_bufs and inodes to speed things up. cache_purge is trying to flush out all entries from one of those caches. After the purge one entry was left unexpectedly, maybe because someone leaked a reference on it or something. The message doesn't indicate an on-disk problem, it's a problem in xfs_repair.
