Re: [BUG?]Set XIP mount option on ext2 bypass check.

[Carsten Otte <cotte@de.ibm.com>]

This is an updated version of my bugfix patch. Yan Zheng pointed out,
that ext2_remount lacks checking if -o xip should be enabled or not.
This patch checks for presence of direct_access on the backing block
device and if the blocksize meets the requirements.
Andrew, please consider adding this patch to -mm.
