Subject: ext4: ignore journalled data options on remount if fs has no journal
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eb513689c97e3e73bb9b4459d490a8e894b4a546;p=mv-sheeva.git

ext4: ignore journalled data options on remount if fs has no journal

This avoids a confusing failure in the init scripts when the
/etc/fstab has data=writeback or data=journal but the file system does
not have a journal.  So check for this case explicitly, and warn the
user that we are ignoring the (pointless, since they have no journal)
data=* mount option.
