Yeah, ino_crc_ok kinda indicates that the inode... crc ... is ok? :)
Prior to this, it was only used in iocur_crc_valid(), which is called
from fp_crc() to print unchecked/bad/correct/unknown for the crc.
That's only used to print crc fields in the table-driven db stuff:
{ FLDT_CRC, "crc", fp_crc, "%#x (%s)", SI(bitsz(__uint32_t)),
0, NULL, NULL },
so it seems to have a very specific meaning, and wrapping it up
w/ the verifier didn't make sense.
I had something more specific when I first sent the patch but that
was yonks ago. :)

xfs_iread still calls xfs_dinode_verify, right?

ok, sure.

Hm, I can see that, but I don't know how we can test for the presence of
crcs in write_cur. We don't have that info, AFAICT.
