ChangeLog, tune2fs.8.in, tune2fs.c:

  tune2fs.8.in: Update manual page to document what happens if
  	max_mount_count is negative.
  tune2fs.c (main): Allow setting the maximal count value to be
  	negative, since the kernel interprets that as forcing a check.

        * fsck.c (lookup, load_fs_info, check_all): Use lazy evaluation
                for calling interpret_device(), since this requires root
                privileges if the partitions need to be scanned.
