ufs_get_fs_state() needs the file system type to read the state from the

correct place in the superblock. It takes the type from

UFS_SB(sb)->s_flags, but that value is stored after the first call to

ufs_get_fs_state(). The patch below moves the assignment of s_flags up,

before the first call to ufs_get_fs_state().
The patch is against linux-2.6.23-rc6-git7, but it applies (with offset)

to 2.6.22 and to earlier versions as well. It has been tested on the

Solaris flavor of UFS (ufstype=sunx86) - with this change, the file

system can be used in read-write mode.

The same fix is already in 2.6.23-rc6-mm1 (don't know if it's lined up

for .23 though, I think it should be).
