Subject: [PATCH] e2fsck: Fix journal block tag checksum verification

Al Viro complained of a ton of bogosity with regards to the jbd2 block tag
header checksum.  This one checksum is 16 bits, so cut off the upper 16 bits
and treat it as a 16-bit value and don't mess around with be32* conversions.
Fortunately metadata checksumming is still "experimental" and not in a shipping
e2fsprogs, so there should be few users affected by this.

This is the e2fsprogs version of the kernel patch.
