Currently there is no easy way to tell that the mounted file system
contains errors other than checking for log messages, or reading the
information directly from superblock.
This patch adds new sysfs entry "contains_errors" for each ext4 file
system so user can simply check
cat /sys/fs/ext4/sda/contains_errors
If the file system is not marked as containing errors then the file is
empty. Otherwise it would print the same information that could be found
in the log. For example:
error count: 1
EXT4-fs (sda): initial error at 1399305407: trigger_test_error:2630
EXT4-fs (sda): last error at 1399305407: trigger_test_error:2630
