Subject: [PATCH] ext4: Verify s_clusters_per_group even without bigalloc

Currently we ignore s_clusters_per_group field in the on-disk superblock
if bigalloc feature is not enabled. However e2fsprogs don't even open
the filesystem is s_clusters_per_group is invalid. This results in an
odd state where kernel happily works with the filesystem while even
e2fsck refuses to touch it. Verify that s_clusters_per_group is valid
even if bigalloc feature is not enabled to make things consistent. Due
to current e2fsprogs behavior it is unlikely there are filesystems out
in the wild (except for intentionally fuzzed ones) with invalid
s_clusters_per_group counts.
