chattr to a file after converting to ext4 gives scary trace in syslog



Hello all!

I just converted a data partition from ext3 to ext4, and after that I tried to convert a file to use extents:

mordor:/home/gpall# lsattr file
------------------- file
mordor:/home/gpall# chattr +e file
mordor:/home/gpall# lsattr file
-----------------e- file

I calculated the md5 of the file before and after, and it was OK, but syslog had written this after the chattr command:

Has anybody else bumped on this? Is this safe? Is it to be expected?
I am running updated debian squeeze with 2.6.30-2-amd64 stock kernel.

Ciao!
