I don't reproduce this with the metadump posted above. I suppose
hardware/timing could make a difference, however.

Only the first patch is required for the stable tree. Did you have to
manually apply that one? I had to, so it might be a good idea to post it
as applied to your tree just to verify.

That aside, I suppose the problem could be that we still don't wait for
the I/O completion mechanism fully on the mount/log recovery side. E.g.,
we have a buffer reference, but the caller can still proceed to free the
mp from which the error message derives the fs name.
