// N.B. not commented below options are taken and silently ignored // 128 and 256-byte inodes:
// 128-byte inode is described by struct ext2_inode.
// 256-byte one just has these fields appended:
// __u16 i_extra_isize;
// __u16 i_pad1;
// __u32 i_ctime_extra; /* extra Change time (nsec << 2 | epoch) */
// __u32 i_mtime_extra; /* extra Modification time (nsec << 2 | epoch) */
// __u32 i_atime_extra; /* extra Access time (nsec << 2 | epoch) */
// __u32 i_crtime; /* File creation time */
// __u32 i_crtime_extra; /* extra File creation time (nsec << 2 | epoch)*/
// __u32 i_version_hi; /* high 32 bits for 64-bit version */
// the rest is padding.
//
// linux/ext2_fs.h has "#define i_size_high i_dir_acl" which suggests that even
// 128-byte inode is capable of describing large files (i_dir_acl is meaningful
// only for directories, which never need i_size_high).
//
// Standard mke2fs creates a filesystem with 256-byte inodes if it is
// bigger than 0.5GB. So far, we do not do this.
