Title:
  Please set CONFIG_EXT3_FS=n and CONFIG_EXT2_FS=n and
  CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23=y

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:

Status in “linux” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When the old code is disabled the ext4 driver takes over and does a
  better job and gives a smaller kernel.  Specifically the ext4 driver
  does a better job of resisting fragmentation since it uses delayed
  allocation, and supports online resize, whereas the ext2 driver does
  not.

  Config changes requested:

  CONFIG_EXT3_FS=y -> n
  CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y -> n
  CONFIG_EXT4_USE_FOR_EXT23 (NEW) -> y
