Subject: [PATCH 2/2] ext4: improve mount/remount error handling

Commit 5688978 ("ext4: improve handling of conflicting mount options")
introduced incorrect messages shown while choosing wrong mount options.

Firstly, both cases of incorrect mount options, "data=journal,delalloc"
and "data=journal,dioread_nolock" result in the same error message.

Secondly, the problem above isn't solved for remount option: the mismatched
parameter is simply ignored. Moreover, ext4_msg states that remount
with options "data=journal,delalloc" succeeded, which is not true.

To fix it up, I added a simple check after parse_options() call to ensure
that data=journal and delalloc/dioread_nolock parameters are not present
at the same time.
