Subject: [PATCH] ext4: add check to prevent attempting to resize an fs with
 sparse_super2
Git-commit: b1489186cc8391e0c1e342f9fbc3eedf6b944c61
Patch-mainline: v5.14-rc1
References: bsc#1197754

The in-kernel ext4 resize code doesn't support filesystem with the
sparse_super2 feature. It fails with errors like this and doesn't finish
the resize:
EXT4-fs (loop0): resizing filesystem from 16640 to 7864320 blocks
EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): verify_reserved_gdb:760: reserved GDT 2 missing grp 1 (32770)
EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): ext4_resize_fs:2111: error (-22) occurred during file system resize
EXT4-fs (loop0): resized filesystem to 2097152

To reproduce:
mkfs.ext4 -b 4096 -I 256 -J size=32 -E resize=$((256*1024*1024)) -O sparse_super2 ext4.img 65M
truncate -s 30G ext4.img
mount ext4.img /mnt
python3 -c 'import fcntl, os, struct ; fd = os.open("/mnt", os.O_RDONLY | os.O_DIRECTORY) ; fcntl.ioctl(fd, 0x40086610, struct.pack("Q", 30 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024 // 4096), False) ; os.close(fd)'
dmesg | tail
e2fsck ext4.img

The userspace resize2fs tool has a check for this case: it checks if the
filesystem has sparse_super2 set and if the kernel provides
/sys/fs/ext4/features/sparse_super2. However, the former check requires
manually reading and parsing the filesystem superblock.

Detect this case in ext4_resize_begin and error out early with a clear
error message.
