Yeah, the file system treats bdev_read_only() and MS_RDONLY differently.
bdev_read_only() is a hard read-only while MS_RDONLY is a logical read-only. If
there are outstanding transactions in the journal, it must flush them before
continuing.
I have a patch that I accidentally didn't send upstream or apply to opensuse
that handles bdev_read_only() more gracefully but I'm not sure it would help
here.
