From: Hyunchul Lee <hyc.lee@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a0271a15cf2cf907ea5b0f2ba611123f1b7935ec ] We need to commit dirty metadata and pages to disk before remounting exfat as read-only. This fixes a failure in xfstests generic/452 generic/452 does the following: cp something <exfat>/ mount -o remount,ro <exfat> the <exfat>/something 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.
