How about the following?

	pr_warn("%s filesystem being %s at %s supports timestamps until %04ld (0x%llx)\n",
		sb->s_type->name,
		is_mounted(mnt) ? "remounted" : "mounted",
		mntpath,
		tm.tm_year+1900, (unsigned long long)sb->s_time_max);

I think more people would understand "remounted" than "reconfigured".  Also,
is_mounted(mnt) seems like a better choice than mnt_has_parent(real_mount(mnt)).
