With my patch, the kernel will continue to mount the rootfs on SD card
as below.

mmcblk0: mmc0:b368 AF UD 3.84 GiB 
 mmcblk0: p1 p2
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): couldn't mount as ext3 due to feature incompatibilities
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): couldn't mount as ext2 due to feature incompatibilities
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): INFO: recovery required on readonly filesystem
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): write access will be enabled during recovery
random: nonblocking pool is initialized
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): recovery complete
EXT4-fs (mmcblk0p2): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Opts: (null)
VFS: Mounted root (ext4 filesystem) readonly on device 179:2.

You're right.  Will remove it in v2.
