That's caused by commit 96f859d ("libxfs: pack the agfl header
structure so XFS_AGFL_SIZE is correct") and growfs setting the
last free list entry to something that a userspace without the
commit  9fccb9f ("libxfs: pack the agfl header structure so
XFS_AGFL_SIZE is correct") fails to validate correctly.

i.e. update userspace to 4.5.0, and the repair noise will go away.

I think we probably need to fix the growfs code to set it's initial
flfirst/fllast values to be 1/0, not 0/EOFL, and the problem will
then go away....

Cheers,

Dave.
