Well, set of messages at least is somewhat expected after a hard 
shutdown, and shouldn't be a problem as the filesystem should rebuild the 
cache.  In fact, that space_cache rebuild might be why you were seeing 
such high I/O after the reboot and fresh mount.

If the space-cache rebuild is all the problems you see, you may be lucky, 
and the hard-terminated delete and reboot might not have resulted in any 
permanent damage.  OTOH, if it seems the space_cache rebuild is 
interfering with further activity for too long and you end up doing 
another hard reset anyway, there's the nospace_cache mount option to turn 
it off.

(Just a user and list regular with that single comment... I'll let you 
get back to the expert help now.)
