Let's see what CONFIG_LBDAF means:

CONFIG_LBDAF:Enable block devices or files of size 2TB and larger.This option is required to support the full capacity of large
(2TB+) block devices, including RAID, disk, Network Block
Device, Logical Volume Manager (LVM) and loopback.This option also enables support for single files larger than
2TB.The ext4 filesystem requires that this feature be enabled in
order to support filesystems that have the huge_file feature
enabled. Otherwise, it will refuse to mount in the read-write
mode any filesystems that use the huge_file feature, which is
enabled by default by mke2fs.ext4.The GFS2 filesystem also requires this feature.If unsure, say Y.

This iption is to support block devices or files of size 2TB and larger and is enabled by mke2fs.ext4 by default.

We have two ways,
- removed from an existing filesystem by running the following commands: tune2fs -O ^huge_file /dev/mmcblk0p3 fsck /dev/mmcblk0p3
- enable CONFIG_LBDAF in the def_config file
