There is no point in loading bitmap for groups which are completely full.
This causes noticeable performance problems (and memory pressure) on small
systems with large full filesystem
(http://marc.info/?l=linux-ext4&m=126843108314310&w=2).

Jan Kara: Added a comment and changed check to use cpu-endian value.
