The fields of this struct need a leading tab.
ok.

The name "suspremount" might be unpopular.  suspend_remount_state would be
more kernely.

ok.

The typecast is unneeded, and the compounded assign-and-test is not
preferred style.  So here, please use

	struct suspremount *remountp;

	remountp = kmalloc(sizeof(*remountp), GFP_KERNEL);
	if (remountp != NULL) {

ok.

+EXPORT_SYMBOL(suspend_remount_all_fs_ro);

Why is this exported to modules?

it shouldn't. will remove

+		flags = 0;
+		if (sb->s_op && sb->s_op->remount_fs) {
+			ret = sb->s_op->remount_fs(sb, &flags, NULL);
+			if (ret) printk("resume_remount_rw: error %d\n", ret);

newline needed here.

ok.

super_block_operations.remount_fs() is supposed to be called under lock_super().
Some filesystems might go BUG over this, or something.   Was there a reason to
not do this?

nope. will correct

+		kfree(remountp);
+		remountp = tp;
+	}
+	suspremount_list = NULL;
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(resume_remount_fs_rw);

Why the export?

shouldn't

All this code is singly-threaded at a much higher level (I hope), hence
that list doesn't need locking.  However a comment explaining this might be
good.

ok.

We try to avoid putting ifdefs in C files.  So in a header file, do

struct super_block;
#ifdef CONFIG_SUSPEND_REMOUNTFS
extern void suspend_remount_log_fs(struct super_block *sb);
#else
static inline void suspend_remount_log_fs(struct super_block *sb) {}
#endif

will do.

Many thanks on the feedback.
