ext2: Use kvmalloc() for group descriptor array

Array of group descriptor block buffers can get rather large. In theory
in can reach 1MB for perfectly valid filesystem and even more for
maliciously crafted ones. Use kvmalloc() to allocate the array to avoid
straining memory allocator with large order allocations unnecessarily.
