No, none that I know of - it was just an observation that the code
doesn't actually guarantee what the comment says it should do.

The rtbitmap update might touch a lot more than one block. The newly
allocated space in the rtbitmap inode is initialised to zeros, and
so the xfs_rtfree_range() call from the growfs code to mark the new
space free has to write all 1s to that range of the rtbitmap. This
is all done in a single transaction, so we might actually be logging
a *lot* of rtbitmap buffers here.

IIRC, there is a bit per rtextent, so in a 4kB buffer we can mark
32768 rtextents free. If they are 4kB each, then that's 128MB of
space tracked per rtbitmap block. This adds up to roughly 3.5MB of
log space for the rtbitmap updates per TB of grown rtdev space....

So, yeah, I think that calculation and comment is inaccurate, but we
don't have to fix this right now.
