jbd2: don't wipe the journal on a failed journal checksum
If there is a failed journal checksum, don't reset the journal. This allows for userspace programs to decide how to recover from this situation. It may be that ignoring the journal checksum failure might be a better way of recovering the file system. Once we add per-block checksums, we can definitely do better. Until then, a system administrator can try backing up the file system image (or taking a snapshot) and and trying to determine experimentally whether ignoring the checksum failure or aborting the journal replay results in less data loss.
