While it is technically free, you won't be able to use it in day-to-day
operations. It is reserved for the superuser. I believe it is so that if
something should flood the filesystem, the superuser still has space to
operate on the partition.
This can result in ridiculous amounts of reserved space for large
partitions, so the larger the filsystem, the lower the percentage that
should be reserved.
