Thank you for reporting the issue.

Our FS systems should all behave the same. U-Boot file paths are always
absolute. We should identify the problem in the ext4 driver.

I thought I fixed this in
4ed2b1af4599 ("fs: ext4: all file paths are absolute")

hmm, ahh yeah that looks right. For some reason I thought this patch was still relevant but it seems not.

Best regards
