The patch for 2.0.2x is the one from www.ecsnet.com. It does not have
this problem because ext2 parses the option by itself. ext2 calls the
same function (parse_options) for both read_super and remoun. Try using
noexec instead. noexec is parsed by fs/super.c. Note that noexec may
work for you anyhow. I can't really test noexec because I have 1
partition (and thus can't run mount again if noexec works :-)
My problem was with 2.1.26 (as noted in the subject). I don't know which
2.1.x included noatime in fs/super.c, but it did change from the 2.0.x
kernels though.
