I prefer ext4_error(sb, __FUNCTION__, ...) since then we don't need to
update the error message when the function name changes, so while we are
here you may as well change it...

This should be wrapped as ext4_debug(), and you may as well calculate
grp_first_blk and use that for the printed message.

Each of these error returns should have an ext4_error() message so that the
filesystem is marked read-only if this happens.  It might make sense to
just have the error message referenced by a char *, goto err_brelse and then
a single call and brelse(bh) at the end of the function.  I've rewritten
the code below, but note this is a hand-edit and not a patch...  Also note
that we can do the same for inode bitmaps, checking the bits between
[sbi->s_inodes_per_group, sb->s_blocksize * 8 - 1] are set.

We likely also need to skip these checks for uninit groups, so the context
of this patch should change to go into the ext4 patch queue (the checks go
into the "else" clause).
