mke2fs: disable resize_inode feature if 64bit feature is enabled
Since auto_64-bit_support is on by default, resize_inode feature will
be disabled when creating a >16T ext4 according to mke2fs.conf(5).
This should also be done when making ext4 with "-O 64bit" to enable
64bit feature explicitly. Otherwise online resize to enlarge a
over-16T fs to larger would fail.
[root@localhost resize]# truncate -s 50t fs.img
[root@localhost resize]# losetup /dev/loop0 fs.img
[root@localhost resize]# mkfs -t ext4 -O 64bit /dev/loop0 30t
[root@localhost resize]# mount /dev/loop0 mnt
[root@localhost resize]# resize2fs /dev/loop0
resize2fs 1.42.7 (21-Jan-2013)
Filesystem at /dev/loop0 is mounted on /root/resize/mnt; on-line resizing required
old_desc_blocks = 3840, new_desc_blocks = 6400
resize2fs: Invalid argument While checking for on-line resizing support
And dmesg shows
[688378.442623] EXT4-fs (loop0): resizing filesystem from 6710886400 to 13421772800 blocks
[688378.443216] EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): verify_reserved_gdb:700: reserved GDT 3201 missing grp 177147 (5804756097)

[688378.528451] EXT4-fs warning (device loop0): ext4_group_extend:1710: can't shrink FS - resize aborted
With this fix resize2fs could do the online enlarge correctly.
