Wrong check of gdb backup in meta bg as following:
first_group is the first group of meta_bg which contains target group, so
target group is always >= first_group. We check if target group has gdb
backup by comparing first_group with [group + 1] and [group +
EXT4_DESC_PER_BLOCK(sb) - 1]. As group >= first_group, then [group + N] is
> first_group. So no copy of gdb backup in meta bg is done in
setup_new_flex_group_blocks.
No need to do gdb backup copy in meta bg from setup_new_flex_group_blocks
as we always copy updated gdb block to backups at end of
ext4_flex_group_add as following:
ext4_flex_group_add
/* no gdb backup copy for meta bg any more */
setup_new_flex_group_blocks
/* update current group number */
ext4_update_super
sbi->s_groups_count += flex_gd->count;
/*
* if group in meta bg contains backup is added, the primary gdb block
* of the meta bg will be copy to backup in new added group here.
*/
for (; gdb_num <= gdb_num_end; gdb_num++)
update_backups(...)
In summary, we can remove wrong gdb backup copy code in
setup_new_flex_group_blocks.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
