Subject: Re: "beyond 2038" warnings from loopback mount is noisy
Actually this warning is coming from this patch:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fsdevel/20190818165817.32634-10-deepa.kernel@gmail.com/
([PATCH v8 09/20] ext4: Initialize timestamps limits).
This is the code generating the warning:

timestamps beyond 2038"); \
+ } \
} while (0)
This prints a warning for each inode that doesn't extend limits beyond
2038. It is rate limited by the ext4_warning_inode().
Looks like your filesystem has inodes that cannot be extended.
We could use a different rate limit or ignore this corner case. Do the
maintainers have a preference?
