Description of problem:
The revised ufs module still does not mout FreeBSD partitons.
It still gets these error messages:
ufs_read_super: fragment size 2048 is too large
ufs_read_super: fragment size 2048 is too large



Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.4.18-5

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have a freebsd partition with 16K/2k block/frag sizes
2. mount -r -t ufs -oufstype=bsd44 /dev/hda2 /FreeBSD
3. failure....
	

Actual Results:  ufs_read_super: fragment size 2048 is too large
ufs_read_super: fragment size 2048 is too large


Expected Results:  Mounting the FreeBSD partition

Additional info:

Here is a patch to fix the ufs module:
