Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] r/o bind mounts: create helper to drop file write
 access

If someone decides to demote a file from r/w to just
r/o, they can use this same code as __fput().

NFS does just that, and will use this in the next
patch.

AV: drop write access in __fput() only after we evict from file list.
