Remounting a HFS filesystem read-only doesn't clear the "DIRTY"-flags (not
HFS_SB_ATTRIB_UNMNT and HFS_SB_ATTRIB_INCNSTNT) correctly. Subsequent
mounts then report a dirty filesystem and enforce a check before willing to
mount it read-write again.

I think that this is the right placement for sync_filesystem() call.
It's much better to have such call in one place. Anyway, you need to set
HFS_SB_ATTRIB_UNMNT and to clear HFS_SB_ATTRIB_INCNSTNT for remount from
READ-WRITE to READ-ONLY state. And vou need to do opposite operation for
remount from READ-ONLY to READ-WRITE state. So, it's much better ti
leave sync_filesystem() call in the same place but to add additional
logic before this call.

Thanks,
Vyacheslav Dubeyko.

I agree with you and will provide an updated patch for this.
