Subject: [PATCH 17/25] nfs: check mnt instead of superblock directly


If we depend on the inodes for writeability, we will not
catch the r/o mounts when implemented.

This patches uses __mnt_want_write().  It does not guarantee
that the mount will stay writeable after the check.  But,
this is OK for one of the checks because it is just for a
printk().

The other two are probably unnecessary and duplicate existing
checks in the VFS.  This won't make them better checks than
before, but it will make them detect r/o mounts.
