Again, this is static blockdev information - the inode atomic write
flag should not be set if the bdev cannot do atomic writes. It
should be checked at mount time - the filesystem probably should
only mount read-only if it is configured to allow atomic writes and
the underlying blockdev does not support atomic writes...
