I'm not positive this is the right fix.  If we are creating a journal device,
we shouldn't be using the normal defaults based on the size of the journal
device because this will often be much smaller than the actual filesystem.

I'd argue that we set fs_type="journal" earlier when fs_type is being first
set, if INCOMPAT_JOURNAL_DEV is set.
