btrfs: make sure SB_I_VERSION doesn't get unset by remount

Browse Source 
commit faa008899a4db21a2df99833cb4ff6fa67009a20 upstream.

There's some inconsistency around SB_I_VERSION handling with mount and
remount.  Since we don't really want it to be off ever just work around
this by making sure we don't get the flag cleared on remount.

There's a tiny cpu cost of setting the bit, otherwise all changes to
i_version also change some of the times (ctime/mtime) so the inode needs
to be synced. We wouldn't save anything by disabling it.
