[ Upstream commit 426d15ad11419066f7042ffa8fbf1b5c21a1ecbe ]
On a read-only filesystem, we won't invoke the block allocator, so we don't need to prefetch the block bitmaps.
This avoids starting and running the ext4lazyinit thread at all on a system with no read-write ext4 filesystems (for instance, a container VM with read-only filesystems underneath an overlayfs).
