Subject[patch 01/46] touch_mnt_namespace when the mount flags change
2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Dan Williams <dan.j.williams@intel.com>

commit 0e55a7cca4b66f625d67b292f80b6a976e77c51b upstream

Daemons that need to be launched while the rootfs is read-only can now
poll /proc/mounts to be notified when their O_RDWR requests may no
longer end in EROFS.
