The likely cause for that is that the LSN on a data page is corrupted.
It tried to flush the WAL up to location 3F/1868BB20, but there wasn't
that much WAL generated.
It starts to sound more and more like a hardware problem to me. You
mentioned that you have no other software crashes, but I wonder if
you're running anything else on the server that stresses it in any
significant way. I'd suggest checking/replacing the RAM for starters,
that's the most common component to fail, and would cause random
corruption like that. Or if you have spare hardware, switch to another
server and see if the problem goes reappears.
