ext4: don't try to clear the orphan_present feature block device is r/o
commit c5e104a91e7b6fa12c1dc2d8bf84abb7ef9b89ad upstream.
When the file system is frozen in preparation for taking an LVM
snapshot, the journal is checkpointed and if the orphan_file feature
is enabled, and the orphan file is empty, we clear the orphan_present
feature flag. But if there are pending inodes that need to be removed
the orphan_present feature flag can't be cleared.
The problem comes if the block device is read-only. In that case, we
can't process the orphan inode list, so it is skipped in
ext4_orphan_cleanup(). But then in ext4_mark_recovery_complete(),
this results in the ext4 error "Orphan file not empty on read-only fs"
firing and the file system mount is aborted.
Fix this by clearing the needs_recovery flag in the block device is
read-only. We do this after the call to ext4_load_and_init-journal()
since there are some error checks need to be done in case the journal
needs to be replayed and the block device is read-only, or if the
block device containing the externa journal is read-only, etc.
