Hi hujianyang,

I think it makes no difference whether .remount_fs is exported or not,
except in the read-write mount case.

And the patch's use case is below:

Before patch:
root@qemux86:~# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower:lower2 merged
mount: warning: merged seems to be mounted read-only.
root@qemux86:~# mount | grep overlay
overlay on /home/root/merged type overlay (ro,relatime,lowerdir=lower:lower2)
root@qemux86:~# mount -o remount,rw merged
root@qemux86:~# mount | grep overlay
overlay on /home/root/merged type overlay (rw,relatime,lowerdir=lower:lower2)
root@qemux86:~# echo hi > merged/hi

After patch:
root@qemux86:~# mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower:lower2 merged
mount: warning: merged seems to be mounted read-only.
root@qemux86:~# mount | grep overlay
overlay on /home/root/merged type overlay (ro,relatime,lowerdir=lower:lower2)
root@qemux86:~# mount -o remount,rw merged
mount: warning: /home/root/merged seems to be mounted read-only.
root@qemux86:~# mount | grep overlay
overlay on /home/root/merged type overlay (ro,relatime,lowerdir=lower:lower2)
root@qemux86:~# echo hi > merged/hi
-sh: merged/hi: Read-only file system
root@qemux86:~#

If what I think is incorrect, please let me know.

Thanks.
