Subject: [PATCH] ext4: ignore ext3/ext2 only mount options

There is a regression when using the ext4 module to mount
ext2 or ext3 filesystems: When mountoptions are used that are
supported by ext2 or ext3, but not by ext4 the mount fails.

This patch changes the failure into a warning. The case when
the ext4 module is not used for ext2/3 support is unchanged.
