3.6.11.2 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebied...@xmission.com>
[ Upstream commit 90563b198e4c6674c63672fae1923da467215f45 ]
When a read-only bind mount is copied from mount namespace in a higher
privileged user namespace to a mount namespace in a lesser privileged
user namespace, it should not be possible to remove the the read-only
restriction.
Add a MNT_LOCK_READONLY mount flag to indicate that a mount must
remain read-only.
