ext4: Don't claim block from group which has corrupt bitmap
In ext4_mb_complex_scan_group, if the extent length of the newly
found extentet is greater than than the total free blocks counted
in group info, break without claiming the block.
Document different ext4_error usage, explaining the state with which we
continue if we mount with errors=continue
