Subject: [PATCH RFC] jbd2: detect old record when do journal scan

As https://github.com/tytso/e2fsprogs/issues/120 describe tune2fs do not update
j_tail_sequence when do journal recovery. This maybe recover old journal record,
then will lead to file system corruption.
To avoid file system corruption in this case, if detect current transaction's
commit time earlier than previous transaction's commit time when do journal
scan, just return error.
