The way similar changes were incorporated into e2fsprogs in the past
(e.g. large inode support) is to pass an ext2_group_desc around and
in places where access to the "large" part of the struct are needed
this is typecast and conditional upon the appropriate superblock field
or feature, as it is in the kernel. This also avoids the need to change
the parameter everywhere.
This is important because even "ext4" filesystems may only have 32-byte
group descriptors if they are formatted as ext3 and upgraded.
For large inodes, this is using "s_inode_size", and for the group
descriptor it should use "s_desc_size" and INCOMPAT_64BIT.

This does not swap the new fields in the group descriptor. Swabbing the
ext4_group_desc fields should also be conditional upon INCOMPAT_64BIT
and s_desc_size > sizeof(struct ext2_group_desc).
