Subject: [PATCH 49/47] libext2fs: don't report garbage inodes with really
 large inodes

If the inode size is large enough that there are fewer than two inodes
per block, don't report an inode checksum failure as a garbage inode
during the scan because the "more than half are broken" criteria that
we use to decide if a block of inodes is garbage doesn't really apply.
