 Kirk, I want to bring into focus, that EINVAL writes were seen for / and
/var (which leaded to panic and reboot), and fsck after panic failed for /u=
sr
and /tmp. So, you words "The journal does not know of these errors, so does
not look to correct them." is not belong here. Journal was unable to correct
errors on FSes which didn't have any problems at moment of panic!

 And after all, full fsck didn't find any problems with indirect blocks on /
and /var later (yesterday).

 I repeat again: journal problems were seen on filesystems, which didn't
have any visible problems at moment of panic.
