ext4: validate s_reserved_gdt_blocks on mount
commit 5b9554dc5bf008ae7f68a52e3d7e76c0920938a2 upstream. If s_reserved_gdt_blocks is extremely large, it's possible for ext4_init_block_bitmap(), which is called when ext4 sets up an uninitialized block bitmap, to corrupt random kernel memory. Add the same checks which e2fsck has --- it must never be larger than blocksize / sizeof(__u32) --- and then add a backup check in ext4_init_block_bitmap() in case the superblock gets modified after the file system is mounted.
