ext4: don't update sb journal_devnum when RO dev
An ext4 filesystem on a read-only device, with an external journal
which is at a different device number then recorded in the superblock
will fail to honor the read-only setting of the device and trigger
a superblock update (write).
For example:
- ext4 on a software raid which is in read-only mode
- external journal on a read-write device which has changed device num
- attempt to mount with -o journal_dev=<new_number>
- hits BUG_ON(mddev->ro = 1) in md.c
