[ 074/133] ext4: online defrag is not supported for journaled files

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

3.5-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Dmitry Monakhov <dmonakhov@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit f066055a3449f0e5b0ae4f3ceab4445bead47638 upstream.

Proper block swap for inodes with full journaling enabled is
truly non obvious task. In order to be on a safe side let's
explicitly disable it for now.
