Subject: [PATCH 12/39] resize2fs: don't interpret bitmap shift while
 crossing flexbg as raid stride

resize2fs tries to infer the RAID stride by observing differences between the
locations of adjacent block groups' block and inode bitmaps within the block
group.  If the two block groups being compared belong to different flexbgs,
however, it'll be fooled by the large offset into thinking that the FS has an
abnormally large RAID stride.

Therefore, teach it not to get confused by crossing a flexbg.
