The bug is two-fold.

The direct cause is that e2fsprogs script again. It's causing every FS's probe
routine to be run. And sure enough one of them (cramfs) was buggy enough to crash.

So let's just remove the e2fsprogs script. We should also open a bug report in
upstream's Bugzilla about cramfs crashing while mounting a jfs filesystem.
Granted we shouldn't be mounting it in the first place, but it probably
shouldn't crash like this.
