Originally from: Herbert Poetzl <herbert@xxxxxxxxxxxx> This is the core of the read-only bind mount patch set. Note that this does _not_ add a "ro" option directly to the bind mount operation. If you require such a mount, you must first do the bind, then follow it up with a 'mount -o remount,ro' operation.
