Resolves RH Bug 465984 - resize2fs doesn't recognize bogus argument, ending in infinite loop If we don't check for new_size == 0, bogus values send resize2fs into a tailspin: resize2fs 1.41.0 (10-Jul-2008) Illegal block number passed to ext2fs_test_block_bitmap #1 for block bitmap for /tmp/tmp.lntZtMFvz8/fake-disk ...the same message repeated zillion times... Probably should see where that loop is, but at any rate we should error-check parse_num_blocks. Thanks to Petr Muller for reporting this.
