Well, to be clear I didn't just double the size of the inode table. It is dynamically determined based on the data structure. I'm not a file system expert (to call me a novice would probably be stretching it), so I'm hoping someone more versed can chime in. All the code does is query the data structure (specifically, the s_inode_size field of the structure) and use that value instead of blindly assuming an inode size of 128. I don't think it's a matter of what is done with the extra bits, since it's just querying the size of an already created filesystem.
