Subject: [PATCH 3.10 010/268] ext4: preserve the needs_recovery flag when the journal is aborted

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@....edu>

commit 97abd7d4b5d9c48ec15c425485f054e1c15e591b upstream.

If the journal is aborted, the needs_recovery feature flag should not
be removed.  Otherwise, it's the journal might not get replayed and
this could lead to more data getting lost.
