Version: 1.47.3~rc1-1
Affects: src:systemd
Dear Maintainer(s),
autopkgtest on debci has highlighted that the 1.47.3~rc1 version of
mkfs.ext4 fails when used by systemd-repart, while it works with the
version in unstable and testing:

The least-effort way to reproduce is probably to run autopkgtest. Get
the src:systemd sources from unstable/testing and then from the source
directory run:
autopkgtest -B --test-name upstream . -- <preferred autopkgtest runner config>
