[PATCH] don't do orphan processing on readonly devices

[PATCH] don't do orphan processing on readonly devices

[Eric Sandeen]

If you do something like:

# touch foo
# tail -f foo &
# rm foo
# <take snapshot>
# <mount snapshot>

you'll panic, because ext3/4 tries to do orphan list processing on the 
readonly snapshot device, and:

kernel: journal commit I/O error
kernel: Assertion failure in journal_flush_Rsmp_e2f189ce() at journal.c:1356: "!journal->j_checkpoint_transactions"
kernel: Kernel panic: Fatal exception

for a truly readonly underlying device, it's reasonable and necessary 
to just skip orphan list processing.
