That's from ext4_journal_start_sb:
if (sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)
return ERR_PTR(-EROFS);
What was the very first error in your log? It looks like ext4 somehow
flagged some kind of filesystem error or aborted the journal due to
some failure, and log gets filled these messages. We should probably
should throttle these messages by simply putting a
if (sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY)
return -ERNOFS;
at the beginning of ext4_da_writepages() so we don't fill the logs
with extraneous messages that obscure more important error messages.
