Title:
  Incomplete line in mount options for ext4 man page

Status in “util-linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: mount

  The man page of mount includes a section about ext4 options. In that
  section the explanation about 'journal_async_commit' is incomplete.

  It reads like this :

         journal_async_commit
                Commit block can be written to disk without waiting for descriptor blocks. If enabled older kernels cannot mount the device. This will enable

  This should read like this according to
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=blob;f=Documentation/filesystems/ext4.txt
  :

        journal_async_commit
               Commit block can be written to disk without waiting for descriptor blocks. If enabled older kernels cannot  mount the device. This will enable 'journal_checksum' internally.
