With CONFIG_SYS_64BIT_LBA, lbaint_t gets defined as a 64-bit type,
which is required to represent block numbers for storage devices that
exceed 2TiB (the block size usually is 512B), e.g. recent hard drives
We now use lbaint_t for partition offset to reflect the lbaint_t change,
and access partitions beyond or crossing the 2.1TiB limit.
This required changes to signature of ext4fs_devread(), and type of all
variables relatives to block sector.
ext2/ext4 fs uses logical block represented by a 32 bit value. Logical
block is a multiple of device block sector. To avoid overflow problem
when calling ext4fs_devread(), we need to cast the sector parameter.

The 512 byte block size was hard coded in the ext4 file systems.
Large harddisks today support bigger block sizes typically 4096
bytes.
This patch removes this limitation.

This code seems to be entirely othogonal, so remove the #ifdef and put
the condition in the Makefile instead.
