Require mke2fs -F -F for really dangerous operations
Disambiguate the use of "-F" (force) flag for mke2fs to avoid dangerous situations. The use of -F is needed for regular backing files and for filesystems on whole block devices. It should NOT be confused with mke2fs on an apparently-mounted or in-use filesystem. Signed-off-by: Andreas Dilger <adilger@clusterfs.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
