That also reminds me. kvm somehow has an outdated copy of
anon_inodes.c. It needs to be updated for the r/o bind mount patches to
add a proper mnt_want/drop_write(). Otherwise, you'll run into warnings
about imbalanced mount writer counts. Something like this will do, but
it would be best to just stay up to date with mainline for this kind of
stuff.
