e2fsprogs: Add missed ext2fs_close
PATCH 1/1 e2fsprogs: Add missed ext2fs_close
Today i've accidentally overwrote first GB of 400Gb ext4 filesystem with zeroes :) . So journal, group descriptors, rootdir and etc was destroyed. Surprisingly i've able to recover some of my data after long fsck process. I've met only one trivial bug in initialization stage. See patch attached.
