Subject: r/o bind mounts: elevate writer count for custom struct_file
From: Dave Hansen <hansendc@xxxxxxxxxx>

Some filesystems forego the use of normal vfs calls to create struct files. 
Make sure that these users elevate the mnt writer count.  These probably don't
have any real meaning because there is no real backing store for these mounts,
but it is here for consistency.
