How dose it come mke2fs leaves some blocks unused ?

warning: 255 blocks unused.

I got it when running mke2fs on a partition. The partition itself
dosen't seem to have any problems : fsck nor badblocks didn't detect
anything suspect. Dose that have something to do with the hardware, or the
file system or some other else ?
