+ fs/ext2: Ignore checksum seed incompat feature
+
+ This incompat feature is used to denote that the filesystem stored its
+ metadata checksum seed in the superblock. This is used to allow tune2fs
+ changing the UUID on a mounted metdata_csum filesystem without having
+ to rewrite all the disk metadata. However, the GRUB doesn't use the
+ metadata checksum at all. So, it can just ignore this feature if it
+ is enabled. This is consistent with the GRUB filesystem code in general
+ which just does a best effort to access the filesystem's data.
+
+ The checksum seed incompat feature has to be removed from the ignore
+ list if the support for metadata checksum verification is added to the
+ GRUB ext2 driver later.
