When MOUNT_OPTIONS contains 'data=writeback' ext4/271 also fails

[275528.681541] EXT4-fs (sda6): can't mount with data=, fs mounted w/o journal

Seems kernel commit 1e381f60dad9 ("ext4: do not allow journal_opts for
fs w/o journal") refuses all mounts with "data=" mount option.

So skipping ext4/271 in this case makes more sense to me.

This doesn't remove 'data=<foo>' mount option for me

  $ MKFS_OPTIONS="-o data=journal"
  $ echo $MKFS_OPTIONS | sed -e 's/\([ ,]\)data=[a-zA-Z]*[,$]/\1/'
  -o data=journal

Even with that works, the 'sed' filter only removes the 'data=<foo>'
part and leaves the '-o' part, which results in MOUNT_OPTIONS="-o" and
still causes mount to fail.

And perhaps other journal related mount options should be removed too?
e.g. journal_checksum, journal_async_commit, commit=<n>

I sent two patches back in Jan. to fix ext4/271 (skip ext4/271 when
MOUNT_OPTIONS contain journal related options), what do you think?
