We're moving a big chunk of the burden of keeping people from
writing to r/o filesystems from the superblock into the
vfsmount.  This requires that we keep track somehow of the
mounts that might allow writes to a superblock.

You could track this directly by keeping a count of such
mounts in the superblock, but I think this is much simpler.

Introduce a list of vfsmounts hanging off the superblock.
On remount rw->ro operations, consult each mount of the
superblock and examine its __mnt_writers.  Lock out any
new writers to the mount until the remount operation is
complete.
