I don't think the new problems are Intel-specific. In particular, the
GPFs I saw and the one Brandon Allbery reported seem to have occurred
when something called free_xfs_node on a node whose XFS superblock
pointer was NULL, which presumably shouldn't have happened. I haven't
yet determined why it did....
