------- Comment #3 from tytso@mit.edu  2009-01-06 11:05 -------
Thanks for reporting this.  A patch is already in the ext4 patch queue which
prevents this problem, and it will be pushed to Linus shortly:

ext4: Add sanity checks for the superblock before mounting the filesystem

With this patch applied, the mount will be refused and the kernel messages will
show:

EXT4-fs: groups count too large: 0 (block count 56857945295556608, first data
block 55808, blocks per group 16384)
