ext4: reject too-large filesystems on 32-bit kernels
ext4 will happily mount a > 16T filesystem on a 32-bit box, but this is not safe; writes to the block device will wrap past 16T and the page cache can't index past 16T (232 index * 4k pages). Adding another test to the existing "too many sectors" test should do the trick. Add a comment, a relevant return value, and fix the reference to the CONFIG_LBD(AF) option as well.
