Your fixes look OK to me.  For all architectures the two operations the
two operations are interchangeable, so it hasn't given us any problems.
However, it is good to fix these sort of things to prevent headaches.

Yes, you are correct.  This is inside ext2_new_inode() which should never
be called for a read-only filesystem in the first place.  If it is, this
check won't help us anyways since it is only inside an error path, and
the code is much more broken than this.

Cheers, Andreas
