This. Everything else is secondary.
8000 (it's in hex) means EXT4_FEATURE_INCOMPAT_INLINE_DATA (had to
search kernel source for this), which is "inline_data" ext4-only
feature.
So, either the superblock of this filesystem is damaged, or you're
trying to mount ext4 filesystem as ext3 (won't going to work).
So, let's do something easy and non-destructive first (I assume that
/tmp does not contain anything useful):
tune2fs -l /dev/localhost/tmp
fsck.ext3 -f -n /dev/localhost/tmp
fsck.ext4 -f -n /dev/localhost/tmp
fsck.ext3 -b 8193 -f -n /dev/localhost/tmp
fsck.ext4 -b 8193 -f -n /dev/localhost/tmp
And, for the good measure,
uname -a
