Find says: "Incorrect number of links per link"

I am trying to essentially find all files in my home directory that are larger than 1KB and make a .bak zip extension for the files. I am using this command find $HOME -type f

to display only files, but I am getting a warning

find: WARNING: Hard link count is wrong for .../users/mburkhar:
this may be a bug in your filesystem driver. Automatically turning 
on find -noleaf option. Earlier results may have failed to include
directories that should have been searched.

      

        
        
        
      

    

I tried to do research about -noleaf but I can't find what I was looking for ... What should I do about this problem?
