If the directory is packed with no slack space, as soon as any new
directory entries are added, leaf nodes end up getting split and
directory ends up getting very inefficient.

When running "tune2fs -I 256" on moderate to large filesystems, the
time required to run tune2fs can take many hours (20+ before some
users gave up in disgust). This was due to some O(n**2) and O(n*m)
algorithms in move_block() and inode_scan_and_fix(), respectively.

Since the block group checksums depend on the UUID, we need to update
the block group checksums when setting the UUID. We only do so if all
of the checksums are correct, however.

It seems that if we have the test_filesystem flag set on an ext3
filesystem(!) on a system which provides ext4, blkid gets confused.
According to the current logic:
* It's not an ext4dev filesystem, because the system provides ext4.
* It's not an ext4 filesystem, because it has no ext4 features.
* It's not an ext3 filesystem, because the test flag is set.
In the end, it's nothing.
blkid should return *something* that is mountable... I'm inclined to
think that ext3 should be the right answer, if no ext4-specific features
are set.
This would mean just dropping the EXT2_FLAGS_TEST_FILESYS test in
probe_ext3(), because ext4 & ext4dev probes have come first already.

If a block device is read-only, e2fsck -p gets into an infinite loop
trying to preenhalt, closing and flushing the fs, which tries to flush
the cache, which gets a write error and calls preenhalt which tries to
close and flush the fs ... ad infinitum.
Per Ted's suggestion just flag the ctx as "exiting" and short-circuit
the infinite loop.
Tested by running e2fsck -p on a block device set read-only by BLKROSET.

If we don't check for new_size == 0, bogus values send resize2fs into
a tailspin:
resize2fs 1.41.0 (10-Jul-2008)
Illegal block number passed to ext2fs_test_block_bitmap #1 for block bitmap for
/tmp/tmp.lntZtMFvz8/fake-disk
...the same message repeated zillion times...
Probably should see where that loop is, but at any rate we should
error-check parse_num_blocks.

If only ext4 is available (as a module or in /proc/filesystems)
blkid wasn't properly testing for it, because the time checks
were backwards and always failed. This caused old ext4dev
filesystems to fail to mount as ext4. With this patch it works
fine.
Also, don't try to check for modules on a non-Linux system.

Some applications repeatedly re-exec themselves, and if they use the
com_err library, they can leak a file descriptor for each re-exec.
Fix this by setting the close-on-exec flag on the debug file
descriptor. In addition, if the COMERR_DEBUG environment variable
isn't set, don't open the file handle at all.

SuSE has been carrying a patch for a long time to prevent a largely
theoretical race condition if a multi-threaded application adds and
removes error tables in multiple threads. Unfortunately SuSE's
approach breaks compatibility by forcing applications to link and
compile with the -pthread option; using pthread mutexes has
historically been problematic.
This commit fixes things in a more portable way by using
sem_post/sem_wait instead, which is an older interface that doesn't
require the pthreads library. Linux happens to implement
sem_post/sem_init using futexes, and -lrt ends up pulling in
-lpthread, but the advantage of using POSIX semaphores is that
applications don't have to be built using -pthread, unlike the use of
pthread mutexes.
The add_error_table() and remove_error_table() interfaces are the
preferred interfaces and locking protection have been added to only
these interfaces. I have not added locking protection to the
generated initialize_xxx_error_table and initialize_xxx_error_table_r
interfaces, to avoid adding symbol dependencies that would cause a
library to fail to work when linking against older com_err libraries
that do not export et_list_lock() and et_list_unlock(). Threaded
applications shouldn't be using these interfaces in any case.

This fixes a regression that was introduced in commit dcc91e10 (it
showed up first in e2fsprogs 1.40.7). Since we weren't freeing the
filesystem handle, ext2fs_open2() was returning EBUSY, and so this
caused a failure in the code that would automatically determine the
filesystem block size when only the superblock number was specified by
the user.
This was discussed in http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=789323,
and Matthias Bannach pointed this out to me, for which I am very
grateful.
