A recent change to the 2.6.0 kernel has changed the behavior of opening a
block device with the O_EXCL flag. This can cause fsck.jfs to fail to
replay the journal when a file system is mounted read-only.
The JFS utilities have been fixed, and it is recommended that any users of
JFS update the utilities to version 1.1.3.
