Subject: [PATCH -v2 2/3] mke2fs: print extra information about existing ext2/3/4 file systems

The basic idea is to provide a bit more context in this situation:

% ./misc/mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/sdc3
mke2fs 1.42.9 (4-Feb-2014)
/dev/sdc3 contains a ext4 file system
Proceed anyway? (y,n)

... by adding this bit of context:

% ./misc/mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/sdc3
mke2fs 1.42.9 (4-Feb-2014)
/dev/sdc3 contains a ext4 file system
	last mounted on /SOX-backups on Mon May  5 08:59:53 2014
Proceed anyway? (y,n)
