There is a problem on offset metadata. In all flexbg groups the block between the last block bitmap and the first inode bitmap is not used, which introduces a hole. This patch changes this. It corrects the offset of flexbg metadata, specifically at the end of the disk, if the number of groups isn't a multiple of the -G option argument. Céline Bourde.
