The mount command now accepts kio as a mount option.
pagebuf doesn't use the flag yet... will get that next.

Initial changes from Daniel to allow file system 
to be remounted from rw -> ro. 
Under really heavy loads this doesn't quite work, but
for a normal shutdown of a root file system where
most processes are killed off before the remount this 
should work most of the time.

Modid:  2.4.0-test1-xfs:slinx:71948a
linux/include/linux/fs.h - 1.55
        - Added values for KIOBUF io flag.

linux/fs/xfs/xfs_vfsops.c - 1.283
        - Initial changes to allow remounting a file system from read write to
          read only. Not fully correct yet, but working in general cases.

linux/fs/xfs/linux/xfs_super.c - 1.80
        - check for kiobuf io and flag the superblock.
          Initial changes to allow remounting a file system from read write to 
          read only.

linux/fs/xfs/linux/xfs_mount_opt.c - 1.10
        - Added kio and nokio to the mount options.
          Crurrently only kio is valid, eventually it may be possible to
          do remounts to turn on or off kiobuf io, at which time both flags will
          be needed.
