commit 76486b104168ae59703190566e372badf433314b upstream.
When we remount filesystem with 'abort' mount option while changing other mount options as well (as is LTP test doing), we can return error from the system call after commit d3476f3dad4a ("ext4: don't set SB_RDONLY after filesystem errors") because the application of mount option changes detects shutdown filesystem and refuses to do anything. The behavior of application of other mount options in presence of 'abort' mount option is currently rather arbitary as some mount option changes are handled before 'abort' and some after it.
Move aborting of the filesystem to the end of remount handling so all requested changes are properly applied before the filesystem is shutdown to have a reasonably consistent behavior.
