I can just as easily reproduce with ext2, so I don't think XFS has
anything to do with it. This is still raid5 with dm linear on top.
(gdb) bt

(gdb) p *(struct bio *) 0xda37fae0
$1 = {bi_sector = 42974, bi_next = 0x0, bi_bdev = 0xb10dead, bi_flags =
1041,
bi_rw = 1, bi_vcnt = 3, bi_idx = 0, bi_phys_segments = 0,

bi_destructor = 0xc0170050 <bio_destructor>, free_eip = 0xc02e8a26}
EIP is bad, bio debug magic 0x0b10dead. bi_flags has the uptodate bit
set, the clone bit, and the 10th bit (debug dead bit). The bio itself
was freed by 0xc02e8a26, dm.c:clone_endio().
