I don't think this is a good idea at all.  We should do the same
as for noatime and have both a MNT_RDONLY and MS_RDONLY flag,
aswell as two writecounts.  And even if you disagree with that we
should reorder this patch aswell as those related to it to the
end of the series so the uncontroversial stuff can go in first.
