Fix remount,readonly path to flush everything correctly.

The remount readonly path can fail to writeback properly because we
still have active transactions after calling xfs_quiesce_fs().
Further investigation shows that this path is broken in the same
ways that the xfs freeze path was broken so fix it the same
way.
