I am getting this error trying to read an ext4 filesystem extracted from an Android device. The filesystem mounts fine on a standard Linux kernel and fsck.ext4 reports no errors.
Commenting out the corresponding check in parse.rs allows ext4-rs to parse the filesystem and correctly extract files from it.
However I am afraid that we might introduce data corruption issues by simply skipping this check.

If set to true, the check that the block group descriptor size is zero
outside long mode is skipped. This is necessary to read some ext4
filesystems created by possibly buggy tools or kernels.
