[PATCH 4.14 007/165] ext4: clear mmp sequence number when remounting read-only

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@xxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 2dca60d98e241bea686004168f85208f215fc697 ]

Previously, when an MMP-protected file system is remounted read-only,
the kmmpd thread would exit the next time it woke up (a few seconds
later), without resetting the MMP sequence number back to
EXT4_MMP_SEQ_CLEAN.

Fix this by explicitly killing the MMP thread when the file system is
remounted read-only.
