Add a new superblock section that contains a list of
{ minor version, recovery passes, errors_to_fix }
that is - a list of recovery passes that must be run when downgrading
past a given version, and a list of errors to silently fix.
The upcoming disk accounting rewrite is not going to be fully
compatible: we're going to have to regenerate accounting both when
upgrading to the new version, and also from downgrading from the new
version, since the new method of doing disk space accounting is a
completely different architecture based on deltas, and synchronizing
them for every jounal entry write to maintain compatibility is going to
be too expensive and impractical.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
