mount.2: Revise description of MS_REMOUNT | MS_BIND
MS_REMOUNT|MS_BIND affect all per-mount-point flag. MS_RDONLY is only special because it, uniquely, is both a per-mount-point flag *and* a per-filesystem flag. So the sections of per-mount-point flags and MS_REMOUNT can usefully be clarified. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Kerrisk <mtk.manpages@gmail.com>
