commit f2326fd upstream.
IMA testing revealed that after an ext4 remount, file accesses triggered
full measurements even without modifications, instead of skipping as
expected when i_version is unchanged.
Debugging showed `SB_I_VERSION` was cleared in reconfigure_super() during
remount due to commit 1ff2030 ("ext4: unconditionally enable the
i_version counter") removing the fix from commit 960e0ab ("ext4: fix
i_version handling on remount").
To rectify this, `SB_I_VERSION` is always set for `fc->sb_flags` in
ext4_init_fs_context(), instead of `sb->s_flags` in __ext4_fill_super(),
ensuring it persists across all mounts.
