ext4: don't complain about incorrect features when probing
[ Upstream commit 0d9366d67bcf066b028e57d09c9a86ce879bcc28 ] If mount is auto-probing for filesystem type, it will try various filesystems in order, with the MS_SILENT flag set. We get that flag as the silent arg to ext4_fill_super. If we're probing (silent==1) then don't complain about feature incompatibilities that are found if it looks like it's actually a different valid extN type - failed probes should be silent in this case. If the on-disk features are unknown even to ext4, then complain.
