Subject: [PATCH 3/8] e2fsck/pass1.c: Fix undefined behavior in check_blocks()

The offending code is this:

   pb.max_blocks = 1 << (31 - fs->super->s_log_block_size);

While pb.max_blocks is of type blk64_t, the intermediate result of the
expression '1 << 31' is int. However 1 << 31 does not fit in a 32-bit
signed int, causing undefined behavior.

Caught using clang -fsanitize=undefined.
