Not only should this check that the new_first_ino isn't shrinking too
small to cover in-use special inodes, it should also verify that it
isn't growing to cover in-use normal inodes (e.g. lost+found).

I guess one option might be to reserve "12" for the lost+found inode,
since virtually all filesystems have it this way (though not all),
and it would also help e2fsck in the future if it didn't need to
allocate some other inode for lost+found in case of corruption.

Cheers, Andreas
