Dear Maintainer,
as a part of my backup system, I create read-only LVM snapshots of ext4
partitions. On my newest machine, mounting these snapshots sometimes
fails with
  fsconfig() failed: Structure needs cleaning.
accompanied by
  ext4_mark_recovery_complete:6264: comm mount: Orphan file not empty on 
read-only fs.
in dmesg. Upon investigating, I found out that the orphan_file fs
feature, which recently became enabled by default, is the culprit.

This behaviour seems suboptimal to me. Would it be possible to make such
filesystems mountable? If not, perhaps this feature should not be on by
default, or at least there should be a warning about this.

The machine in question is running Debian kernel 6.15-1~exp1, in case
it's important.

Cheers,
