xfstests generic/452 does the following.
cp /bin/ls <exfat>/
mount -o remount,ro <exfat>

the <exfat>/ls file is corrupted, because while exfat is remounted as read-only,
exfat doesn't have a chance to commit metadata and vfs invalidates page
caches in a block device.

I will put this explanation in a commit message.

This condition means that mount options are changed from "rw" to "ro",
or "ro" to "rw".

And this condition means these options are changed from "rw" to "ro".
It seems better to change two conditions to the one you suggested, or
remove those. because sync_filesystem returns 0 when the filesystem is
mounted as read-only.

Okay, I will apply this.
Thank you for your comments!
