I prefer this over adding an extra option to disable. This
way there's no confusion if the compression is on or off.

  mount -o compress,nocompress /dev /mnt
The confusion still exists if an user does:

	mount -o compress,compress=no /dev /mnt

However I prefer the form "compress=" because already exists the option
"compress=lzo|zlib".

Is it on or off? Yeah we can document that nocompress has higher
priority. But then I can't turn a nocompress option back to compress via
remount. This is possible with Arnd's patch.
