Well, I kept those checks just because fs/ code does the same.

E.g. fs/super.c

reconfigure_super()
{
if (fc->ops->reconfigure)
fc->ops->reconfigure(fc)
}

do_emergency_remount_callback()
{
fc = fs_context_for_reconfigure();
reconfigure_super(fc);
}

Oh... Indeed, somehow I forgot to put_fs_context().

OK.

OK, will cook a formal patch then. Thanks!
