We need a mechanism to tell when to use the backup super_block.
To do this it needs a frame-work, and the patch #1 and #2 below
provides the same without change in the logic.
Its been found and posted to the list that check_mounted
needs access to the backup-sb and find-root as well. so
patch #3 provides frame work so that threads which need
the access to the backup sb can set the flag.
further,
patch#4 disables backup-sb access except for check_mounted
patch#5 provides backup-sb access to find-root
v5->v6:
Dropped patch

sorry my mistake.
v2->v3:
