Took 63 million ops and just over 3 hours before it failed here with
a similar 16 byte map read corruption on the first 16 bytes of a
page. Given the number of fallocate operations that lead up to the
failure - 14 of last 23, plus 3 clone, 2 copy, 2 map read, 1 skip
and the map write that it suggests the stale data came from - this
smells of an invalidation issue...

Cheers,

Dave.
