Smartctl tells me the problem is at LBA 2014551336 (this is a 2TB disk)
sounds bad

Here's the question:  If I just reformat and restore /home from a
recent backup, will the disk automatically deal with the sectors
pending reallocation?
REALLY: throw away the disk and do not restore backups to it

be thankful that you got warned instead lsoe the disk
from one moment to another and replace it



+1
Erase the disk thoroughly (using hdparm) and send it for warranty
repair/replace if still under warranty.
