A recent commit, 9803387c55f7 ("ext4: validate the
debug_want_extra_isize mount option at parse time"), moved mount-time
checks around. One of those changes moved the inode size check before
the blocksize variable was set to the blocksize of the file system.
After 9803387c55f7 was set to the minimum allowable blocksize, which
in practice on most systems would be 1024 bytes. This cuased file
systems with inode sizes larger than 1024 bytes to be rejected with a
message:
EXT4-fs (sdXX): unsupported inode size: 4096

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
