        - xfs_repair fix to prevent double insertion into the
          uncertain_inode AVL trees ("avl_insert: duplicate range")
+       - xfs_repair fix if the log is corrupted and we can't find
+         the head, don't exit - just proceed on with zeroing it
        - use snprintf instead of sprintf throughout
