Thanks for this :)

Thoughts on renaming the module to something less specific than ext2,
like extfs? Does anyone remember this question coming up before?

If I had a dollar for every user I've helped find this, that has replied
'oh! I thought that was only ext2', I'd have like $43.

Also, any reason why we don't have a mount_extfs(8) command? Can we also
have (man,mount) aliases for each of extN that is supported?
