add_new_gdb() only needs the no. of a group, there is no need to pass a pointer to struct ext4_new_group_data to add_new_gdb(). There was a pointer to struct buffer_head passed to add_new_gdb() to get group descriptor buffer, actually, add_new_gdb() stores buffer pointer for new group descriptor block in s_group_desc, thus we can get it from s_group_desc after add_new_gdb() returns.
