Hi,

Unfortunately you have not provided *.full logs, but I believe that
at least 013, 083 and 269 failures are caused by bug in e2fsprogs
which was fixed with:

085757fcc22a86168ee6793dfad9a95d88fb09db e2fsck: don't report uninit
extents past EOF invalid

which is present in the lates e2fsprogs release 1.42.9.

Please retest with that.

Thanks!
