I was testing the lz4(hc) patches, and I found the the compression
INCOMPAT flags are not being updated using the method in this patch.

The compression INCOMPAT flags are generally checked and updated in
the open_ctree() function.

But, on remount, open_ctree() is not called.

I was going to test a patch to update the INCOMPAT flags similar to
the way lzo INCOMPAT is updated when specifying the compress method in
defragmentation.

But, let me know if it is preferred to just return -EINVAL when trying
to remount with a compression method that has an INCOMPAT not yet seen
by that volume.
