Subject: [PATCH 0/2] e2fsck: make sure orphan files are cleaned-up

Hi!

I'm sending a fix to e2fsck that forces the filesystem checks to happen
when the orphan file is present in the filesystem.  This patch resulted from
a bug reported in openSUSE Tumbleweed[1] where e2fsck doesn't clean-up this
file and later the filesystem  fails to be mounted read-only (because it
still requires recovery).

I'm also sending a new test to validate this scenario.

  e2fsck: don'k skip checks if the orphan file is present in the
    filesystem
  tests: new test to check that the orphan file is cleaned up
