Subject: [PATCH 3.18 027/185] ocfs2: return -EROFS to mount.ocfs2 if inode block is invalid

3.18-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: piaojun <piaojun@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit 025bcbde3634b2c9b316f227fed13ad6ad6817fb ]

If metadata is corrupted such as 'invalid inode block', we will get
failed by calling 'mount()' and then set filesystem readonly as below:

  ocfs2_mount
    ocfs2_initialize_super
      ocfs2_init_global_system_inodes
        ocfs2_iget
          ocfs2_read_locked_inode
            ocfs2_validate_inode_block
	      ocfs2_error
	        ocfs2_handle_error
	          ocfs2_set_ro_flag(osb, 0);  // set readonly

In this situation we need return -EROFS to 'mount.ocfs2', so that user
can fix it by fsck.  And then mount again.  In addition, 'mount.ocfs2'
should be updated correspondingly as it only return 1 for all errno.
And I will post a patch for 'mount.ocfs2' too.
