It's in the 2.4 devel tree, so it will appear in 2.4.20-pre sometime.

Update of /cvsroot/gkernel/ext3/fs/ext3
In directory usw-pr-cvs1:/tmp/cvs-serv7665

Modified Files:
      Tag: ext3-1_0-branch
        super.c
Log Message:
Allow an arbitrary commit interval to be set when mounting or remounting
a filesystem.

Note that if this is greater than the system bdflush interval, then the
regular sync()s will beat the commit timer and you won't get longer
commit timeouts.
