`mount -o bind,ro ...` suffers from a silent failure where the readonly
flag is ignored. The bind mount will be created rw whenever the target
is rw. Users typically workaround this by remounting readonly, but that
does not work when you want to define readonly bind mounts in fstab.
This is a major annoyance when dealing with recursive bind mounts
because the userland mount command does not expose the option to
recursively remount a subtree as readonly.
