The field that indicates the size of the largest contiguous chunk of
free space in the cluster is not initialized when setting up bitmaps,
it's only increased when we find a larger contiguous chunk. We end up
retaining a larger value than appropriate for highly-fragmented
clusters, which may cause pointless searches for large contiguous
groups, and even cause clusters that do not meet the density
requirements to be set up.
