From 71290b368ad5e1e0b0b300c9d5638490a9fd1a2d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2009 17:31:04 -0400 Subject: ext4: Don't update superblock write time when filesystem is read-only This avoids updating the superblock write time when we are mounting the root file system read/only but we need to replay the journal; at that point, for people who are east of GMT and who make their clock tick in localtime for Windows bug-for-bug compatibility, and this will cause e2fsck to complain and force a full file system check.
