[01/34] namespace: take lock_mount_hash() directly when changing flags

Changing mount options always ends up taking lock_mount_hash() but when
MNT_READONLY is requested and neither the mount nor the superblock are
not already MNT_READONLY we end up taking the lock, dropping it, and
retaking it to change the other mount attributes. Instead of this,
acquire the lock once when changing mount properties. This simplifies
the locking in these codepath, makes them easier to reason about and
avoids having to reacquire the lock right after dropping it.

What about adding a lockdep_assert_lock_held in all the functions
that used to take the lock to document the assumptions?

This helper is rather pointless now.

In linux-next there is an additional notify_mount after the unlock here.

Also while you touch this lock_mount_hash/unlock_mount_hash could be
moved to namespace.c and maked static now.

Good idea and will do. I wanted to do this but then didn't because I
haven't seen widespread use of lockdep assert in fs/namespace.c.

Ok, will remove.

Thanks! I can try rebasing on -next.

Ok, will try to do that.
