I was wondering more about the dangling stag reference that the original work request carried. Normally, it would reference the still-valid stag, but if that stag was torn down (causing the invalidation to point to nothing), or worse, re-bound (causing it to point at something else!), then it's a possible issue? Sorry to seem paranoid here. Storage is pretty sensitive to silent data corruption avenues. Because they always find a way to happen.
