It will cause segfault, but it is caused by another issue. See my
patch "mke2fs: Avoid segmentation fault in
ext2fs_alloc_generic_bmap". And with that patch, the mkfs.ext4 will
fail with the error: /dev/sdb3: Memory allocation failed while setting
up superblock
The reason is that in ext2fs_initialize, we align s_inodes_per_group
to 8, but fails to consider the case that s_inodes_per_group < 8.
So make at least 8 inodes for s_inodes_per_group.
