No, you should file a bug against findutils!

It seems that 'find' compares the hard link count of directories with
the number of subdirectories, and prints the above warning if they don't
match.

However, a mismatch does *not* necessarily indicate a "bug in the
filesystem driver." It can also occur if directories are created or
deleted between the time the hard link count is obtained and the time
the number of subdirectories is obtained.
