From: Baokun Li <libaokun1@xxxxxxxxxx> Now, if dmesg is cleared, we have no way of knowing if the file system has been shutdown. Moreover, ext4 allows directory reads even after the file system has been shutdown, so when reading a file returns -EIO, we cannot determine whether this is a hardware issue or if the file system has been shutdown. Therefore, when ext4 file system is shutdown, we're adding a 'shutdown' hint to commands like mount so users can easily check the file system's status.
