I succeed to rollback the rbd image to S0 and `total_objects` got back to the previous value (24). On the other hand, `total_used` didn't become the original value. Repeating the following steps resulted in the continuous growth of `total_used`. 1. Import the broken diff (it fails). 2. Rollback to S0. I guess it's a resource leak. Could you tell me whether I can clean up these remaining garbage data?
