------------------------------------------------------
Subject: r/o bind mounts: elevate writer count for custom 'struct file'
From: Dave Hansen <haveblue@xxxxxxxxxx>

Some filesystems forego the vfs and may_open() and create their own 'struct
file's.  Any of these users which set the write flag on the file will cause an
extra mnt_drop_write() on __fput(), thus dropping the reference count too low.

These users tend to have artifical in-kernel vfsmounts which aren't really
exposed to userspace and can't be remounted, but this patch is included for
completeness and so that the warnings don't trip over these cases.
