can you see if xfs_logprint can parse the log? probably best to
use the "-t" option for transactional output as that should be the
equivalent of log recovery parsing the log.

Further, can you make sure you are mounting a clean filesystem
by running sync a couple of timeѕ before you unmount? If the log is
clean and you are seeing the problem, it will narrow down the
possible causes of the problem. xfs_logprint should tell you if the
log is clean or dirty....

Cheers,

Dave.
