--scan-whole-partition is an expert option now because it is supposed to
be used in some special cases only. What it does is it overwrites data in
the tree with data found in unused space. It is useful if you occasionally
have deleted some data or fsck has not recovered some and you want to get
smth from unused space. But it could recover some useless stuff or even
corrupt some other data, so you should backup all important data before
using it. So, you have just recovered all found old data, which could
overwrite some of your uptodate data.
