ext4: make "norecovery" an alias for "noload"
Users on the linux-ext4 list recently complained about differences across filesystems w.r.t. how to mount without a journal replay. In the discussion it was noted that xfs's "norecovery" option is perhaps more descriptively accurate than "noload," so let's make that an alias for ext4. Also show this status in /proc/mounts Signed-off-by: Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: "Theodore Ts'o" <tytso@mit.edu>
