is active on the volume and we are mounting read-write or remounting
      from read-only to read-write.

+ * logging is disabled.  If it is present it means transaction logging is
+ * either enabled or in the process of being disabled in which case we can
+ * ignore it as it will go away as soon as Windows gets its hands on it.
+ *
+ * To determine whether the transaction logging is enabled or in the process
+ * of being disabled, need to check the volume flags in the
+ * $VOLUME_INFORMATION attribute in the $Volume system file (which is present
+ * in the root directory and has a fixed mft record number, see layout.h).
+ * If the flag VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY is set it means the transaction log
+ * is in the process of being disabled and if this flag is clear it means the
+ * transaction log is enabled.
+ *
+ * The transaction log consists of two parts; the $DATA/$Max attribute as well
+ * as the $DATA/$J attribute.  $Max is a header describing the transaction
+ * log whilst $J is the transaction log data itself as a sequence of variable
+ * sized USN_RECORDs (see below for all the structures).
+ *
+ * We do not care about transaction logging at this point in time but we still
+ * need to let windows know that the transaction log is out of date.  To do
+ * this we need to stamp the transaction log.  This involves setting the
+ * lowest_valid_usn field in the $DATA/$Max attribute to the usn to be used
+ * for the next added USN_RECORD to the $DATA/$J attribute as well as
+ * generating a new journal_id in $DATA/$Max.
+ *
+ * The journal_id is as of the current version (2.0) of the transaction log
+ * simply the 64-bit timestamp of when the journal was either created or last
+ * stamped.
+ *
+ * To determine the next usn there are two ways.  The first is to parse
+ * $DATA/$J and to find the last USN_RECORD in it and to add its record_length
+ * to its usn (which is the byte offset in the $DATA/$J attribute).  The
+ * second is simply to take the data size of the attribute.  Since the usns
+ * are simply byte offsets into $DATA/$J, this is exactly the next usn.  For
+ * obvious reasons we use the second method as it is much simpler and faster.
+ *
+ * As an aside, note that to actually disable the transaction log, one would
+ * need to set the VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY flag (see above), then go
+ * through all the mft records on the volume and set the usn field in their
+ * $STANDARD_INFORMATION attribute to zero.  Once that is done, one would need
+ * to delete the transaction log file, i.e. \$Extent\$UsnJrnl, and finally,
+ * one would need to clear the VOLUME_DELETE_USN_UNDERWAY flag.
+ *
+ * Note that if a volume is unmounted whilst the transaction log is being
+ * disabled, the process will continue the next time the volume is mounted.
+ * This is why we can safely mount read-write when we see a transaction log
+ * in the process of being deleted.
