as far as I know, there is no need to do such a thing to reiserfs.
I bet that JFS, XFS and perhaps others are the same.
tune2fs is safe to use on a mounted filesystem, though I think the
change will not take effect until the filesystem is remounted(perhaps
just a mount <filesystem> -o remount,rw is enough..?). I have had some
systems force a check after doing a tune2fs -c 0 -i 0 upon next boot,
but then it wouldn't do checks again after that. But more recently I
haven't had a system force a check after doing a tune2fs -c 0 -i 0
