From 4198ce4de86d2144ce127bba0d263a005926acf2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

Subject: [PATCH 03/16] libext2fs: automatically enable meta_bg to avoid
filling up BG 0
commit 03940aac5492879ef365b07e69105a98f4dbabf9
If during formatting we'd lose more than 75% a block group to group
descriptors and other metadata, enable the meta_bg feature. This
enables us to create >500T filesystems with default options.
