[Bug 1563139] Re: filefrag bug requires update from 1.42.9 -> 1.42.12

[racitup]

Further to this and my testing results at the link below, I would
strongly urge e2fsprogs be updated to v1.43-WIP once full validation of
the package is completed.

I have found another issue with filefrag on FAT filesystems.
