Take a look at the AOSP master branch for e2fsprogs.  These changes
are not yet part of an official Android release (as they showed up
after the 'N' release) but you'll see that e2fsprogs has been updated
to 1.43 release and in the contrib/android directory, there is a new
e2fsdroid program.  That was some great work done by Adrien
Schildknecht as part of his Google intern project, and he consulted
with me on the design of how to refactor that functionality out of
make_ext4fs.

There are still some changes needed before we can completely get rid
of make_ext4fs (it is called programmatically from the volume manager,
and that last bit of work hasn't been converted yet).  And of course
there has still be some polishing and bug fixing that has been
happening to make sure things are smooth on Mac and Windows build
hosts, etc.  So as usual with the AOSP master branch, understand that
it is a work in progress, and it hasn't gotten the same level of
testing as an official android "letter" release.

Cheers,
