if you can run xfs_repair -n to see if it produces error output.
xfs_repair -n works on a mounted filesystem but does not change anything.

If you do see errors you need to unmount the fs and run xfs_repair and see
if you can reproduce the oops after that there must be other issues.

Can you also apt-get 2.95.4? I believe that one currently is in unstable.
Even if it is just to test for compiler differences.
