If the current inode size is less than or equal to the requested inode
size, either explain that shrinking the inode size is not supported,
or that the inode is already the requested size. Also, open the
filesystem provisionally first to do the inode size check and don't
setup up the undo log until we know that we're actually going to

For people who are compiling mke2fs for their own use outside of a
package manager, we need to make sure the system /etc/mke2fs.conf is
sufficiently up-to-date that it won't cause problems, but at the same
time we don't want to blow away any user-specific customizations.
So if /etc/mk2fs.conf exists, but does not mention ext4dev, we will
move it aside to /etc/mke2fs.conf.e2fsprogs-old and then install the
new mke2fs.conf. If the /etc/mke2fs.conf file exists but does mention
ext4dev, we install the new mke2fs.conf file as
/etc/mke2fs.conf.e2fsprogs-new. In both cases we print a warning
mesage to the user so they can manually update /etc/mke2fs.conf with
any changes if they so desire.

Solaris's header files are very picky about which C compiler can be
used for SUSv3 conformance. Use of C99 is not compatible with SUSv2
(_XOPEN_SOURCE=500), and C89 is not compatible with SUSv3
(_XOPEN_SOURCE=600). Since we need some SUSv3 functions, consistently
use SUSv3 so that e2fsprogs will build on Solaris using c99.

If creating a an external journal via "mke2fs -O journal_dev",
override the fs_type list (i.e., "ext2", "small"), and replace it with
an fs_type list of "journal". This will prevent external journals
smaller than 512MB from being created with a block size of 1k, which
is not very useful and leads to much confusion.

Currently, badblocks will read as fast as it can from the drive. While
this is what one wants usually, if badblocks is run in read-only mode on
a drive that is in use, it will greatly degrade the other users of this
disk.
This patch adds a throttling mode for reads where each read will be
delayed by a percentage of the time the previous read took; i.e., an
invocation of '-d 100' will cause the sleep to be the same as the read
took, a value of 200 will cause the sleep to be twice as high, and a
value of 50 will cause it to be half. This will not be done if the
previous read had errors, since then the hardware will possibly have
timeouts and that would decrease the speed too much.
This algorithm helps when the disk is used by other processes as then,
due to the increased load, the time spent doing the reads will be
higher, and correspondingly badblocks will sleep even more and thus it
will use less of the drive's bandwidth. This is different from using
ionice, as it is a voluntary (and partial) throttling.

Currently, the parse_uint() function checks errno after the strtoul()
call. But, according to the man page of strtoul():
Since strtoul() can legitimately return 0 or LONG_MAX (LLONG_MAX for
strtoull()) on both success and failure, the calling program
should set errno to 0 before the call, and then determine if an error
occurred by checking whether errno has a nonzero value after the call.
When using locales, it can happen that looking for the locale files is
not successful, and therefore errno will have a nonzero value from this.
And since the argument parsing is one of the first things done after
startup, parse_uint() will wrongly report errors.
The fix is to simply reset errno to zero before calling strtoul().

Currently, badblocks will continue scanning the device until it reaches
last_block, even though it might be that the drive is not responding
at all anymore.
This patch introduces a new parameter ('-e') that allows one to specify
the maximum bad block count; if badblocks sees more than this number, it
will abort the test.
While this is not useful for testing a device that will need to be used
as a filesystem (because we don't get an exhaustive list of bad blocks),
it is useful for testing if a device has bad blocks at all: for example,
with a count of 1, it will finish after the first error thus not needing
to test the whole device if the only purpose of the test is to check for
any bad blocks.

This fixes some bugs which I introduced recently while revamping the
uninit_bg code. Since mke2fs is no longer calling
ext2fs_set_gdt_csum(), it's important that ext2fs_initialize()
correctly initialize bg_itable_unused for all block group descriptors.
In addition, mke2fs needs to zero out the the reserved inodes based on
the values of bg_itable_unused set by ext2fs_initialize().
