Subject: [PATCH] dir_index: error out instead of BUG on corrupt hash dir limit

A corrupt ondisk hash dir limit will trip an assert in dx_probe,
which calls BUG().  Instead, we can just issue the warning and
fail dx_probe like the other 3 tests just before it.  Thanks
to aviro for suggesting this...  Tested with a hand-crafted
corrupt ext3 image, issues:

EXT3-fs warning (device loop0): dx_probe: Corrupt limit in dir inode 14337

vs. previous:

Assertion failure in dx_probe() at fs/ext3/namei.c:383: "dx_get_limit(entries) == dx_root_limit(dir, root->info.info_length)"
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at fs/ext3/namei.c:383!
