Cover letter [PATCH 00/13][e2fsprogs] Uninit block group break down

The Uninit block group patch is painful to review since it's quite a large patch. Since simple patches are easier to review, I decided to break down the patch into smaller logical pieces that should be easier to review, clean and fix.

The patch is based from the latest e2fsprogs git tree and aside from a compile test (which fails on PPC64 because of missing ext2fs_swab_group_desc()), I have not fully tested these patches. My intent here is to get some of the back log of patches in better shape for eventual inclussion into Ted's tree.

Aside from the breakdown, this is essentially the same patch that Avantika submitted to the mailing list a couple of weeks ago with some minor changer to allow it to apply on the latest git tree. Let me know what you folks think.
