    e2fsprogs: modify dumpe2fs to report free block ranges for bigalloc
    
    dumpe2fs has never been modified to correctly report block ranges
    corresponding to free clusters in block allocation bitmaps from bigalloc
    file systems.  Rather than reporting block ranges covering all the
    blocks in free clusters found in a block bitmap, it either reports just
    the first block number in a cluster for a single free cluster, or a
    range beginning with the first block number in the first cluster in a
    series of free clusters, and ending with the first block number in the
    last cluster in that series.
    
    This behavior causes xfstest shared/298 to fail when run on a bigalloc
    file system with a 1k block size.  The test uses dumpe2fs to collect
    a list of the blocks freed when files are deleted from a file system.
    When the test deletes a file containing blocks located after the first
    block in the last cluster in a series of clusters, dumpe2fs does not
    report those blocks as free per the test's expectations.
    
    Modify dumpe2fs to report full block ranges for free clusters.  At the
    same time, fix a small bug causing unnecessary !in_use() retests while
    iterating over a block bitmap.

    debian: add missing copyright information
    
    When the package-specific copyright information was removed, it
    resulted in some information being lost.  It probably makes sence to
    have all of the licensing information in a single file, so add it back
    to the debian/copyright file.

    "e2fsck: fix handling of a invalid symlink in an inline_data
    directory"

    e2fsck: fix handling of a invalid symlink in an inline_data directory
    
    If there is an inline directory that contains a directory entry to an
    invalid symlink, and that invalid symlink is the portion of the inline
    directory stored in an xattr portion of the inode, this can result in
    a buffer overrun.
    
    When check_dir_block() is handling the in-xattr portion of the inline
    directory, it sets the buf pointer to the beginning of that part of
    the inline directory.  This results in the scratch buffer passed to
    e2fsck_process_bad_inode() to incorrect, resulting in a buffer overrun
    if e2fsck_pass1_check_symlink() needs to read the symlink target (when
    the symlink is too long to fit in the i_blocks[] space).
    
    This commit fixes this by using the original cd->buf instead of buf,
    since it can get modified when handling inline directories.

    e2fsck: Suppress "orphan file is clean" message in preen mode
    
    The e2fsck report, "Feature orphan_present is set but orphan file is
    clean" is intended to request permission before removing the r/o
    compat feature, orphan_present.  However, it is normal if the orphan
    file is empty, and removing the r/o compat feature is a good thing so
    that the file system can be mounted on older kernels.
    
    When a file system with an orphan_file feature is mounted, the
    orphan_present feature is set, and it is cleared when the file system
    is cleanly unmounted.  IF the sytstem crashes when there are no inodes
    in the orphan file, e2fsck should just silently clear the flag in
    preen mode.

    Disable metadata_csum_seed and orphan_file by default for Debian
    
    There are a lot of debian packages that assume that mkfs.ext4 for
    Debian N will work on Debian N-1 (and sometimes N-2, N-3, etc.).  This
    is a bad assumption, but it's too late to fix this for Debian
    Bookworm.
    
    So revert making these feature a default for now.  We will enable it
    again post Bookworm.
