Subject: [PATCH 0/3] e2fsck: expand checking of EA inode

Hello,

customer has reported that his filesystem was reporting errors from
ext4_iget() about inode with EA_INODE_FL but e2fsck was considering the
filesystem as clean. Indeed the EA inode checking in e2fsck is weak and
lets through several cases of corruption related to EA inodes. This series
adds more strict checking of EA inodes and adds e2fsck tests for them.
