It's probably better to just make this read "but a journal is
present".  The reason why we were doing the fill-in word was because
the intent was to be able to make the distinction between a journal
inode and an external journal device.  The intent was never realied,
and at this point it's better to just take out the specifity of
whether we are using a journal inode or a journal device.
