Subject: [PATCH 1/7] ext4: Introduce le32_t and le16_t

ext4 file system layout contain different split members
like bg_block_bitmap  and bg_block_bitmap_hi. Introduce
data type le32_t and le16_t to be used as the type of
these split members. This prevents these members frome
being accessed directly. Accesing them directly gives
a compiler warning. This helps in catching some BUGS
due to direct partial access of these split fields.
