mke2fs: always warn if 128-byte inode and inline_data

The combination of 128-byte inodes and inline_data is silly, since
there's no room in the inode table.  Unfortunately, if neither
mke2fs.conf nor the mkfs command line options specify an inode size,
the default inode size is set to 128 bytes (by libext2fs) and the
warning isn't printed.  Therefore, always do the check-and-warning.
