Just a quick note to confirm that I can reliably reproduce the issue
using a USB stick and the above script on Bookworm. After running the
reproducer for a few minutes I start getting the following in dmesg:
kernel: EXT4-fs error (device sdf): ext4_map_blocks:607: inode #9971675: block
4: comm git-annex:w: lblock 1 mapped to illegal pblock 4 (length 1)
