[PATCHv1 9/9] ext4: Add extra check in ext4_mb_mark_bb() to prevent against possible corruption

[Ritesh Harjani <riteshh@linux.ibm.com>]

This patch adds an extra checks in ext4_mb_mark_bb() function
to make sure we mark & report error if we were to mark/clear any
of the critical FS metadata specific bitmaps (&bail out) to prevent
from any accidental corruption.
