tune2fs -m "reserved space?"

tune2fs
-m reserved-blocks-percentage
-r reserved-blocks-count

If what I have read is correct, -m by default uses 5% of the disk space for
"reserved root use" On my server at home with a /home of 1TB thats about
50GB of wasted space.

Is this reserved space actually used by ANYTHING? Like LVM, some kind of
fragmentation?

Thanks
