Hi Jaegeuk, Chao,

I have observed another scenario where the similar list corruption issue
can happen with sbi->inode_list as well. If recover_fsync_data()
fails at some point in write_checkpoint() due to some error and if
those recovered inodes are still dirty, then after the mount is
successful, this issue is observed when that dirty inode is under 
writeback.

[   90.400500] list_del corruption. prev->next should be ffffffed1f566208, but was (null)
[   90.675349] Call trace:

I think it is better to cleanup those inodes completely before freeing sbi
and before next retry as done in this patch. Would you like to re-consider
this patch for this new issue?

Please share your comments.
