ext4: mark group corrupt on group descriptor checksum
If the group descriptor fails validation, mark the whole blockgroup corrupt so that the inode/block allocators skip this group. The previous approach takes the risk of writing to a damaged group descriptor; hopefully it was never the case that the [ib]bitmap fields pointed to another valid block and got dirtied, since the memset would fill the page with 1s.
