XFS_CORRUPT_DOSOMETHING() jumps out to me as indicate corruption if the
logic statement evaluates as true rather than false. The latter (e.g.,
assert-like logic) is how they work today, so that could be a bit
confusing to somebody who isn't already familiar with how these macros
work.

Unfortunately, nothing shorter than the current naming immediately comes
to mind... :/ We could kill the XFS_ prefix I suppose or even invert the
logic of the calls, but that's certainly a more significant change.
Thoughts?
