docs: filesystems: ext4: blockgroup.rst: replace some characters 

The conversion tools used during DocBook/LaTeX/html/Markdown->ReST
conversion and some cut-and-pasted text contain some characters that
aren't easily reachable on standard keyboards and/or could cause
troubles when parsed by the documentation build system.

Replace the occurences of the following characters:

	- U+2217 ('∗'): ASTERISK OPERATOR
	  use ASCII asterisk instead of the ASTERISK OPERATOR

@ -84,7 +84,7 @@ Without the option META\_BG, for safety concerns, all block group
descriptors copies are kept in the first block group. Given the default
128MiB(2^27 bytes) block group size and 64-byte group descriptors, ext4
can have at most 2^27/64 = 2^21 block groups. This limits the entire
filesystem size to 2^21 ∗ 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB.
filesystem size to 2^21 * 2^27 = 2^48bytes or 256TiB.
The solution to this problem is to use the metablock group feature
(META\_BG), which is already in ext3 for all 2.6 releases. With the
