Is not this more heavyweight than necessary?

i.e. would not mnt->mnt.mnt_flags |= MNT_READONLY suffice?

Since this mount point is not attached anywhere there cannot be any
writers to synchronize against (and if there could be some, you would
have to check error code from mnt_make_readonly).

That said, apart from this thingy and cosmetic issues looks good to me,
but note I'm just some random guy commenting on a patch.
