[PATCH 5.7.y 3/5] exfat: call sync_filesystem for read-only remount

From: Namjae Jeon
Date: Wed Jul 01 2020 - 19:25:57 EST


From: Hyunchul Lee <hyc.lee@xxxxxxxxx>

We need to commit dirty metadata and pages to disk
before remounting exfat as read-only.

This fixes a failure in xfstests generic/452

generic/452 does the following:
cp something <exfat>/
mount -o remount,ro <exfat>

the <exfat>/something is corrupted. because while
exfat is remounted as read-only, exfat doesn't
have a chance to commit metadata and
vfs invalidates page caches in a block device.

Fixes: 719c1e182916 ("exfat: add super block operations")
