The following patch fixes the reported issue. >From f4e156cef119f3ffcc56874da4fb9299cc14f68e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 23:06:59 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] ext4: swap i_disksize when swaping the boot loader inode Normally well-behaved of EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT won't actually try to write to the either inode after using the ioctl, but if they do, the fact that we're not swapping ei->i_disksize as well as inode->i_size can trigger warnings.
