[ Upstream commit 11215630aada28307ba555a43138db6ac54fa825 ] A customer has reported a BUG_ON in ext4_clear_journal_err() hitting during an LTP testing. Either this has been caused by a test setup issue where the filesystem was being overwritten while LTP was mounting it or the journal replay has overwritten the superblock with invalid data. In either case it is preferable we don't take the machine down with a BUG_ON. So handle the situation of unexpectedly missing has_journal feature more gracefully. We issue warning and fail the mount in the cases where the race window is narrow and the failed check is most likely a programming error. In cases where fs corruption is more likely, we do full ext4_error() handling before failing mount / remount.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
