For flex_bg enabled fs, we could merge the
inode table blocks into a contiguous range,
this improves mke2fs time on large devices
when lazy_itable_init is disabled.
On a 977TB device, unpatched mke2fs was running
for 449m10s before getting terminated manually.
strace shows huge number of fallocate, given the
offset from fallocate it has done 41% of the inode
tables, the estimated time needed would be 1082m.
unpatched patched
real 449m10.954s 4m20.531s
user 0m18.217s 0m16.147s
sys 0m20.311s 0m8.944s
