Subject: [PATCH v3] jbd2: Fix block tag checksum verification brokenness

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.

v2: Eliminate unnecessary variables and make it clear(er) which values are 32
bits wide.

v3: Add a comment about why we're only storing half of the crc32c.
