The original i_version implementation was pretty expensive, requiring a log flush on every change. Because of this, it was gated behind a mount option (implemented via the MS_I_VERSION mountoption flag). Commit ae5e165d855d (fs: new API for handling inode->i_version) made the i_version flag much less expensive, so there is no longer a performance penalty from enabling it. Have ext4 ignore the SB_I_VERSION flag, and just enable it unconditionally.
