ext4: disallow files with EXT4_JOURNAL_DATA_FL from EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT
A malicious/clueless root user can use EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT to force a corner casew which can lead to the file system getting corrupted. There's no usefulness to allowing this, so just prohibit this case. Signed-off-by: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>
