When calling e2fsck with '-E discard' option it might happen that valid inodes are discarded accidentally. This is because we just discard the part of inode table which lies past the highest used inode. This is terribly wrong (sorry!). This patch fixes it so only the free parts of an inode table is discarded, leaving used inodes intact. This was tested with highly fragmented inode tables with block size 4k and 1k.
