[PATCH] ext3: Add "-o bh" option

Browse Source 
This patch adds "-o bh" option to force use of buffer_heads.  This option
is needed when we make "nobh" as default - and if we run into problems.

bh (*) ext3 associates buffer heads to data pages to
nobh (a) cache disk block mapping information
(b) link pages into transaction to provide
ordering guarantees.
"bh" option forces use of buffer heads.
"nobh" option tries to avoid associating buffer
heads (supported only for "writeback" mode).
