Subject: [PATCH 4.4 010/113] btrfs: log message when rw remount is attempted with unclean tree-log

From: David Sterba <dsterba@...e.com>

commit 10a3a3edc5b89a8cd095bc63495fb1e0f42047d9 upstream.

A remount to a read-write filesystem is not safe when there's tree-log
to be replayed. Files that could be opened until now might be affected
by the changes in the tree-log.

A regular mount is needed to replay the log so the filesystem presents
the consistent view with the pending changes included.
