           Summary: net/netatalk3 afpd spews error messages about invalid
                    metadata EA

I did a "pkg upgrade" yesterday.  Since then, afpd has been spewing message
pairs like the following:

Oct 12 13:00:32 pughole afpd[6159]:
ad_header_read_ea("/zpool/timemachine/Teri2210/MacBook
Air.sparsebundle/mapped/742"): invalid metadata EA
Oct 12 13:00:32 pughole afpd[6159]:
ad_header_read_ea("/zpool/timemachine/Teri2210/MacBook
Air.sparsebundle/mapped/742"): deleted invalid metadata EA

In a little over 24 hours, I have received about 45,000 messages like this. 
The time machine was constructed using the previous version of netatalk.  The
errors are being generated during backups from up-to-date MacOS Monterey
systems, version 12.6 to pre-existing time machine volumes.  The server is
running FreeBSD 13.1.  The package is netatalk3-3.1.13_3,1.
