Add new mount flag EXT4_MOUNT_INIT_INODE_TABLE and add new pair of mount
options (inititable/noinititable). When mounted with inititable file
system should try to initialize uninitialized inode tables, otherwise it
should prevent initializing inode tables. For now, default is noinittable.
One can also specify inititable=n where n is a number that will be used
as the wait multiplier (see "Add inode table initialization code into
Ext4" patch for more info). Bigger number means slower inode table
initialization thus less impact on performance, but longer
inititalization (default is 10).
