mkfs.ext4 -O ^has_journal

This command will make an ext4 drive with no journal.  We should make this and 
the ext3 version options for /boot, with this being the default for a separate 
/boot drive.

We should set option discard for SSD's (or at least ask user if they want it)

We should add a new param to genkernel to support discard on encrypted drive 
(working on this upstream already)

Thoughts on each?
