Today I have upgraded the kernel, now it is linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 (3.2.39-2). I think we have to reopen the bug, because it seems that the bug is not solved but just suppressed the warning messages. It is not just my thoughts; everyone can make sure executing couple of command.
df ( will show the free space of partition, f.x. 200GB free) dd /dev/zero of=IMG_FILE bs=1M count=128k (will create image file, with size 128GB) df ( now we can see that the partition free space is 72GB, because we have 128GB image file on it) mkfs -t ext4 IMG_FILE (will format image file, without any error messages or warnings!!!) df ( after the formatting process is finished, "df" will show that we have 200GB free space, and "ls -al" will show that we also have file IMG_FILE on the partition, with the size 128GB!!!) This effect is exactly the same as it was before, but with one small difference: the error messages suppressed, and we haven't chance to see errors. It is worst. We have the bug, but haven't error messages. Please take into account that I havent created the "sparse" file, in the case of "sparse file" it is normal when you have 128 GB file on 200 GB partition and the command "df" is show that 200 GB is still free.
