Writeback grabs sb->s_umount for read during I/O. This blocks bind-remount for a long time. Bind-remount actually does not need sb->s_umount locked for read or write because it does not alter superblock, only mnt_flags. All mnt_flags are serialized by global mount_lock. This patch moves locking into callers to handle remount atomically. Also grab namespace_sem to synchronize with /proc/mounts and mountinfo. Function do_change_type() uses the same locking combination.
