Description Pedro F. Giffuni freebsd_committer

The Note states that:

" ... and inodes greater than 128-bytes are not supported"

This is outdated and is simply not true in any supported version of FreeBSD.

For the record; those are only useful for some extra timestamps that appeared after ext4 (which we support) and for non-standard EAs (which we ignore).

So, we just remove that part from the note or do we need to rewrite more in that section/chapter?
