I am not sure, but I suspect that a lot of small files could cause
this. You would have to back up the file system, and reformat it
with less bytes-pre-inode.
From the mke2fs man page:
Be warned that is not possible to expand the number of inodes on a
filesystem after it is created, so be careful deciding the correct
value for this parameter.
