That's an excellent point, thanks for catching it.  Here's an updated
patch.

-- Dave

This patch actually adds the mount and superblock writer
counts, and the mnt_want/drop_write() functions that use
them.

Before these can become useful, we must first cover each
place in the VFS where writes are performed with a
want/drop pair.  When that is complete, we can actually
introduce code that will safely check the counts before
allowing r/w<->r/o transitions to occur.
