Subject: [PATCH] ext4: remove unnecessary selections from EXT3_FS

From: Eric Biggers <ebiggers@...gle.com>

Since EXT3_FS already selects EXT4_FS, there's no reason for it to
redundantly select all the selections of EXT4_FS -- notwithstanding the
comments that claim otherwise.

Remove these redundant selections to avoid confusion.
