Subject: [PATCH 3.2 022/199] ext4: use more strict checks for
 inodes_per_block on mount

3.2.87-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>

commit cd6bb35bf7f6d7d922509bf50265383a0ceabe96 upstream.

Centralize the checks for inodes_per_block and be more strict to make
sure the inodes_per_block_group can't end up being zero.
