Hi Damjan;

Yes, this is consistent with us ignoring the feature: read-only operation
should not touch the disk and warning only when unmounting would give the
impression that *we* somehow corrupted the information. Let the rw
implementation (in linux) deal with it.

An alternative would have been to simply not mount the disk and let the user
deal with ext4 fsck (I think that was what was happening originally).
