The following commits exist in jbd2, and the backport to jbd is relatively straightforward. In doing so we make the debug enable interface consistent between jbd and jbd2. For testing, I've booted up a machine with ext3 fs, done some basic operations (update a git tree, build a kernel) and also ensured that enabling debug via the new /sys/module/jbd/parameters/ entry works. Testing was on a baseline of v3.10-rc1-39-g741ddbc.
