When a backup superblock is updated in update_backups(), the primary superblock's offset in the group (that is, sbi->s_sbh->b_blocknr) is used as the backup superblock's offset in its group. However, when the block size is 1K and bigalloc is enabled, the two offsets are not equal. This causes the backup group descriptors to be overwritten by the superblock in update_backups(). Moreover, if meta_bg is enabled, the file system will be corrupted because this feature uses backup group descriptors. To solve this issue, we use a more accurate ext4_group_first_block_no() as the offset of the backup superblock in its group.
