[PATCH] ext4: disable synchronous transaction batching if max_batch_time==0

[Eric Sandeen <sandeen@redhat.com>]

The mount manpage says of the max_batch_time option,

	This optimization can be turned off entirely
	by setting max_batch_time to 0.

But the code doesn't do that.  So fix the code to do
that.

Lightly tested: it mounts, accepts the mount option == 0,
shows "0" in /proc/mounts, and does basic IO & unmounts
without crashing.  ;)
