Subject: [PATCH 4.8 26/67] ext4: sanity check the block and cluster size at mount time

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>

commit 8cdf3372fe8368f56315e66bea9f35053c418093 upstream.

If the block size or cluster size is insane, reject the mount.  This
is important for security reasons (although we shouldn't be just
depending on this check).
