What about ther file system types, like nullfs, unionfs, cd9660?  I
created an ext2 partition, filled it with data, and mounted it
read-only.  So far I am unable to reproduce this problem.

I'm also running with the DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS and the following patch in an
attempt to catch the bug closer to its origin.  Be forwarned that
DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS sometimes gets triggered by procfs and linprocfs, but
you can just continue in DDB.
