If you have RAM with stuck or unreliable bits in it, and a metadata block is stored in it, you can end up with keys with errors in. These usually show up as "bad key order". In many cases, these out-of-order keys can be identified and fixed with a simple heuristic. This patch series implements that heuristic, and fixes a long-standing issue with the existing code to fix out- of-order keys.
