How about the following?
pr_warn("%s filesystem being %s at %s supports timestamps until %04ld
(0x%llx)\n",
sb->s_type->name,
is_mounted(mnt) ? "remounted" : "mounted",
mntpath,
tm.tm_year+1900, (unsigned long long)sb->s_time_max);
I think more people would understand "remounted" than "reconfigured". Also,
is_mounted(mnt) seems like a better choice than mnt_has_parent(real_mount(mnt)).
