Subject[patch 34/39] ext4: Add sanity checks for the superblock before mounting the filesystem
2.6.28-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>

(cherry picked from commit 4ec110281379826c5cf6ed14735e47027c3c5765)

This avoids insane superblock configurations that could lead to kernel
oops due to null pointer derefences.

Thanks to David Maciejak at Fortinet's FortiGuard Global Security
Research Team who discovered this bug independently (but at
approximately the same time) as Thiemo Nagel, who submitted the patch.
