I see two issues with this patch:

1) 'mount -u -o rw /mnt' does not upgrade to rw, although it returns success.

2) if you have a file open for write, after remounting ro you still can write
to the file. The expected behaviour: remount fails with EBUSY if force option
is not specified; after remounting with force writing to the fail fails with EIO.

I think when remounting ro you should call vflush(), something like below:

	flags = WRITECLOSE;
	if (mp->mnt_flag & MNT_FORCE)
		flags |= FORCECLOSE;
	error = vflush(mp, 0, flags, curthread);
	if (error != 0)
		return (error);
	MNT_ILOCK(mp);
	mp->mnt_flag |= MNT_RDONLY;
	MNT_IUNLOCK(mp);

and when upgrading to rw reset MNT_RDONLY flag:

	MNT_ILOCK(mp);
	mp->mnt_flag &= ~MNT_RDONLY;
	MNT_IUNLOCK(mp);

I have no idea if something else is needed for tmpfs.
