Are there actually plans for s_blocks_per_group > 2^32?  We can already handle
up to 2^32 groups, so we have plenty of room to spare.

I don't think any of this (above or in most/all of the rest of this patch)
should be conditional upon #ifdef _EXT4FS_.  Instead, it should depend on
INCOMPAT_64BIT being set in the superblock.  I don't think it introduces
any compatibility issues by itself.
