This is not possible - you must unmount to change the
data journalling mode.

No, this refers to a problem where
	mount foo -o data=journal
would succeed, but then
	mount foo -o remount,data=journal
would fail.  We now allow remount to specify the journalling
mode, but it must be the same as the current mode - this change
is just to allow us to work more nicely with the mount tools.
