Commit 18db4b4e6fc31eda838dd1c1296d67dbcb3dc957 upstream.

Thanks for resending with the upstream commit. Could you include in the future the kernel version the backport is meant for in the subject line, e.g:

[PATCH 3.18.y 3/3] ext4: don't allow r/w mounts if metadata blocks

or

[PATCH 4.9.y 3/3] ext4: don't allow r/w mounts if metadata blocks

I mentioned that the patches are for 3.18.y in the cover letter title but you're right it should have been here as well. Noted for later :)

I've had to make changes to all the three patches, can you please Ack the backports so that Greg knows I didn't fubar anything? I'd appreciate it a lot.
