Yeah.. Mark had added the failed checksum check in debugfs.
Without that we were running blind. Hard to compute it in the head. ;)
mnt count was originally added in extN to force fsck after N mounts.
That has never worked for us because fsck is a offline process. And it
could take time. It is prudent to let users control when it's run.
FWIW, extN has also changed its default behaviour to ignore mnt count.
