Then, can you dump the invalid directory entries in corrupted image, and
check exactly why recursive traverse (ls -lR) never end?

We need to know the root cause to fix, e.g. this directory entry has

Sounds like filtered the invalid names.

It may had the luck, loop was filtered by invalid names. Well, not sure.
