Subject: [PATCH] fs/xfs: Fix unreadable filesystem with v4 superblock

The commit 8b1e5d193 (fs/xfs: Add bigtime incompat feature support)
introduced the bigtime support by adding some features in v3 inodes.
This change extended grub_xfs_inode struct by 76 bytes but also changed
the computation of XFS_V2_INODE_SIZE and XFS_V3_INODE_SIZE. Prior this
commit, XFS_V2_INODE_SIZE was 100 bytes. After the commit it's 84 bytes
XFS_V2_INODE_SIZE becomes 16 bytes too small.

As a result, the data structures aren't properly aligned and the GRUB
generates "attempt to read or write outside of partition" errors when
trying to read the XFS filesystem:

This commit change the XFS_V2_INODE_SIZE computation by subtracting 76
bytes instead of 92 bytes from the actual size of grub_xfs_inode struct.
This 76 bytes value comes from added members:
	20 grub_uint8_t   unused5
	 1 grub_uint64_t  flags2
        48 grub_uint8_t   unused6

This patch explicitly splits the v2 and v3 parts of the structure.
The unused4 is still ending of the v2 structures and the v3 starts
at unused5. Thanks to this we will avoid future corruptions of v2
or v3 inodes.

The XFS_V2_INODE_SIZE is returning to its expected size and the
filesystem is back to a readable state:
