3.8.13.20 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

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

commit 3d2660d0c9c2f296837078c189b68a47f6b2e3b5 upstream.

The set_flexbg_block_bitmap() function assumed that the number of
blocks in a blockgroup was sb->blocksize * 8, which is normally true,
but not always!  Use EXT4_BLOCKS_PER_GROUP(sb) instead, to fix block
bitmap corruption after:

mke2fs -t ext4 -g 3072 -i 4096 /dev/vdd 1G
mount -t ext4 /dev/vdd /vdd
resize2fs /dev/vdd 8G
