Btrfs devel - Nov 2013 - [PATCH] btrfs: allow mounting btrfs subvolumes with different ro/rw options

From: Harald Hoyer <harald@redhat.com>

Given the following /etc/fstab entries:

/dev/sda3 /mnt/foo btrfs subvol=foo,ro 0 0
/dev/sda3 /mnt/bar btrfs subvol=bar,rw 0 0

you can''t issue:

$ mount /mnt/foo
$ mount /mnt/bar

You would have to do:

$ mount /mnt/foo
$ mount -o remount,rw /mnt/foo
$ mount --bind -o remount,ro /mnt/foo
$ mount /mnt/bar

or

$ mount /mnt/bar
$ mount --rw /mnt/foo
$ mount --bind -o remount,ro /mnt/foo

With this patch you can do

$ mount /mnt/foo
$ mount /mnt/bar

$ cat /proc/self/mountinfo
49 33 0:41 /foo /mnt/foo ro,relatime shared:36 - btrfs /dev/sda3
rw,ssd,space_cache
87 33 0:41 /bar /mnt/bar rw,relatime shared:74 - btrfs /dev/sda3
rw,ssd,space_cache

Thanks for resending Harald.  I''ll give this a shot and see if I can
find any problems with it.
