ext2: fix filesystem deadlock while reading corrupted xattr block

This bug can be reproducible with fsfuzzer, although, I couldn't reproduce it
100% of my tries, it is quite easily reproducible.

During the deletion of an inode, ext2_xattr_delete_inode() does not check if the
block pointed by EXT2_I(inode)->i_file_acl is a valid data block, this might
lead to a deadlock, when i_file_acl == 1, and the filesystem block size is 1024.

In that situation, ext2_xattr_delete_inode, will load the superblock's buffer
head (instead of a valid i_file_acl block), and then lock that buffer head,
which, ext2_sync_super will also try to lock, making the filesystem deadlock in
the following stack trace:

Fix this by using the same approach ext4 uses to test data blocks validity,
implementing ext2_data_block_valid.

An another possibility when the superblock is very corrupted, is that i_file_acl
is 1, block_count is 1 and first_data_block is 0. For such situations, we might
have i_file_acl pointing to a 'valid' block, but still step over the superblock.
The approach I used was to also test if the superblock is not in the range
described by ext2_data_block_valid() arguments
