These ones?

Jul 8 04:44:56 via kernel: [554197.888008] Assertion failed: whichfork == XFS_ATTR_FORK || ip->i_delayed_blks == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c, line: 5879
Jul 9 03:25:21 via kernel: [42940.748007] Assertion failed: whichfork == XFS_ATTR_FORK || ip->i_delayed_blks == 0, file: fs/xfs/xfs_bmap.c, line: 5879

I'll happily rebuild the kernel without the debug option and do xfs_check
to weed out any possible logical problem with the volume, if you don't
need any further information from the current state of my volume.

I should also say that this assert failue happened two nights in a row so
I guess it's fairly reproducible (didn't happen on the 10th, and today,
the 11th it seems to have panic:ed around 03:30 (I start the
defragmentation via cron at 03:00) which I think is related.
