You don't need to check with upstream e2fsprogs; I do keep an eye on
Launchpad bugs.

None of UBSAN warnings are actually dangerous assuming sane[1] compilers
and reasonable architecture.  (e.g., a compiler that can correctly
compile the Linux kernel and an architecture that run Linux should have
no problems with e2fsprogs).

[1]  "Any sufficiently advanced compiler is indistinguishable from a
malicious adversary."

Still, it's better to fix these sorts of issues than not, so please see
the attached patch.  It will be included in the next release of
e2fsprogs.
