May 20 11:27:30 worf kernel: Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=268)
May 20 11:27:32 worf kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00, sector 2140
May 20 11:27:40 worf kernel: Socket destroy delayed (r=0 w=268)
May 20 11:28:20 worf last message repeated 4 times
May 20 11:29:30 worf last message repeated 7 times
May 20 11:30:30 worf last message repeated 6 times

This is just a hunch, but because of the I/O error coinciding with the
socket messages it could be that something in the kernel is misfiring
and spitting over places in ram that it shouldn't and thus corrupting
some of the socket data structures. Again, just a hunch.
