Just as an FYI, ext2 has a distinction between "ext2_panic", "ext2_error", and "ext2_warning". The panic is just what it sounds like (and can only be triggered by something like memory corruption, it is almost unused). The error has a configurable behaviour - panic also, ro-mount, warning. In all cases, it marks the filesystem superblock with an error. The default is ro-mounting the filesystem. The warning is just a warning (unusual condition, but a 100% recoverable situation).
