So you're using out of tree modules in the IO path, on a custom
Centos 6.3 kernel and you are getting random hangs waiting for IO
completion.

FWIW, 15,000 lines of log files is not the information I asked for,
but this:

[1535047.183083] MEMBlaze Hardware IO Request Irresponsible

indicates that you are using some kind of PCIe flash hardware from a
chinese startup that doesn't have in-kernel drivers or english
documentation.  There's no way we can really help you diagnose IO
stack problems given these conditions.

FWIW, your logs indicate that something is going wrong in your IO
stack, not with XFS.  XFS is triggering the hung task timer waiting
for IO completion, and only after many, many reboots as a result of
these hangs you see a log corruption when trying to mount the
filesystem.

So - look to flashcache or your hardware as the source of your
problem...

Cheers,

Dave.
