I did not think of that, but the Gentoo Wiki on Android/ADB suggests
that the full android-sdk-update-manager package is a prerequisite for
dev-util/android-tools.

Why not just disable journaling on those partitions altogether?

# Delete has_journal option
tune2fs -O ^has_journal 

# Issue required fsck
e2fsck -f
