It does appear that someone (probably XFS) has done a use-after-free.

One way in which you perhaps catch this is to do:

--- a/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.h~a
+++ a/fs/xfs/linux-2.6/xfs_buf.h
@@ -151,6 +151,7 @@ typedef struct xfs_buf {
 #ifdef XFS_BUF_LOCK_TRACKING
 	int			b_last_holder;
 #endif
+	char crap[1024];
 } xfs_buf_t;
 

and to then compile with CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.  The enlarged xfs_buf will
then get unmap-when-freed treatment and hopefully you'll get a nice oops
from the instruction which is corrupting that memory.

An xfs thing.

Thanks again.
