Difference in statvfs(2) block count with ext2 and very recent Linux 3.2.0 kernels

Hi,

We do some automated testing of the kernel and ext2/3/4 filesystems,
and noticed that the block count returned by statvfs(2) for plain
*ext2* filesystems has changed with the latest 3.2.0rc1 kernel.

This is probably just because of more accurate block accounting, but I
just wanted to check that it isn't a bug.

This posting contains the numbers and a reproducer:
