Those two only support the second case with 128 byte inodes, but the same
check should work on all three.

I have an overview of the limits on https://kernelnewbies.org/y2038/vfs,
though I'd probably check all of them again, as some of them turned out
to be wrong. In particular, identifying whether the on-disk timestamps
are meant to be signed or unsigned can be a matter of interpretation
and there may be a specification that disagrees with the implementation.
