[PATCH] reiserfs: disable automatic enabling of reiserfs inode attributes

Unfortunately, the reiserfs_attrs_cleared bit in the superblock flag can
lie.  File systems have been observed with the bit set, yet still contain
garbage in the stat data field, causing unpredictable results.

This patch backs out the enable-by-default behavior.

It eliminates the changes from: d50a5cd860ce721dbeac6a4f3c6e42abcde68cd8,
and ef5e5414e7a83eb9b4295bbaba5464410b11e030.
