Am I missing something?  The kernel stores up to 3k worth of data, on

the e2fsprogs patch seems badly broken....

I thought that ext4 super block on 4K block is 1K at offset 1K, so
kernel only uses the remaining 2K.

It may very well be that e2fsck patch only works with 4K block size properly,
because I never tested it on other block sizes.
