Subject: [PATCH 1/2] ext4: remove duplicate remount check for JOURNAL_CHECKSUM
 change

commits c6d3d56d and 6b992ff2 each added the same test for, and
rejection of, changing journal_checksum during remount.  One suffices.

While we're at it, remove old comment about the "check" option
which has been deprecated for some time now.
