Note: when you change the superblock definition, you *must* also
update the test in lib/ext2fs/tst_super_size.c.
If you don't then running "make check" from the top-level of the build
tree will likely bomb out. And you will also reveal to me that you
haven't run the full set of regression tests before submitting your
patch series. :-)
