When ext2 mounts a filesystem, it attempts to set the block device blocksize with a call to sb_set_blocksize, which can fail for several reasons. The current failure message in ext2 prints: EXT2-fs (loop1): error: blocksize is too small which is not correct in all cases. This can be demonstrated by creating a filesystem with # mkfs.ext2 -b 8192 on a 4k page system, and attempting to mount it. Change the error message to a more generic: EXT2-fs (loop1): bad blocksize 8192 to match the error message in ext3.
