[PATCH v3 4/4] vfs: fs_may_remount_ro: turn unnecessary check into a WARN_ON

From: Miklos Szeredi
Date: Wed Jan 12 2011 - 11:06:50 EST


From: Miklos Szeredi <mszeredi@xxxxxxx>

Now a successful sb_prepare_remount_readonly() should ensure that no
writable files remain for this superblock. So turn this check into a
WARN_ON.
