For start this looks good! Feel free to add:

fs/inode.c:dump_mapping() already has quite a bit of what you'd want here
so just refactoring dump_mapping() so it can be used in the new asserts
would get you 90% there I'd think.

It looks rather underwhelming.
I was thinking about an equivalent of vn_printf like here:
https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/tree/sys/kern/vfs_subr.c#n4533
Dumps all fields, with spelled out flag names and so on. Also there is
a hook for fs-specific dump routine.
Very useful, but also quite a chore to fully implement and future-proof.
