Subject: [PATCH] tune2fs: allow disabling casefold feature

Casefold can be safely disabled if there are no directories with +F
attribute ( EXT4_CASEFOLD_FL ). This checks all inodes for that flag and in
case there isn't any, it disables casefold FS feature. When FS has
directories with +F attributes, user could convert these directories,
probably by mounting FS and executing some script or by doing it
manually. Afterwards, it would be possible to disable casefold FS flag
via tune2fs.
