From: Tao Ma <boyu.mt@xxxxxxxxxx>
update_backups is used to backup all the metadata blocks, so we should
not take it for granted that 'data' is pointed to a super block and use
ext4_superblock_csum_set to calculate the checksum there. In case
the data is a group descriptor block, it will corrupt the last group
descriptor. And e2fsck will complain it.
As all the metadata checksum should already be OK when we do the backup,
remove the wrong ext4_superblock_csum_set and it should be just fine.
