Can you say a little more about the philosophy here?

xfs/005 regresses because it expects "structure needs cleaning"

So if we instead return our (icky) CRC error code, we get something else.

But it is truly a different root cause.

So the goal is to NEVER leak EFSBADCRC to userspace?  Maybe a comment
above that error definition would help document that.

And I'm bit worried that we'll leak more in the future if things changed,
or if things got missed here.  Everything you have here looks fine, but
it's not obvious that every path has been caught; it seems a bit random.

I know we _just_ merged my "differentiator" patches, but I wonder if
it would be better to add XFS_BSTATE_BADCRC to b_state or some other 
field, and go back to always assigning EFSCORRUPTED.  What do you think?

When I wrote those I wasn't thinking about keeping it all internal
to the filesystem.
