extents ext4 will use extents to address file data. The
file system will no longer be mountable by ext3.
+journal_checksum Enable checksumming of the journal transactions.
+ This will allow the recovery code in e2fsck and the
+ kernel to detect corruption in the kernel. It is a
+ compatible change and will be ignored by older kernels.
+
+journal_async_commit Commit block can be written to disk without waiting
+ for descriptor blocks. If enabled older kernels cannot
+ mount the device. This will enable 'journal_checksum'
+ internally.
+
journal=update Update the ext4 file system's journal to the current
format.
