Hi,

After doing some debugging into a particular problem we have been facing with xfs and mount and remount / as readonly, I might have found a defect which is triggered once in a while. We have 2 XFS filesystems, during a reboot first /mnt is umounted, then / is remounted readonly. This is xfs 1.0.1 on powerpc. Once in a while after some writes being done on /, there would be junk that is printed during reboot. An example,
mount: unknown mount option "m`".
umount2: No space left on device
...


Thanks, this seems to be correct - it ties in with the argument parsing in other filesystems, and the EINVAL return
also makes sense. Your change will be going into cvs shortly.

Steve
