This breaks the historical behavior. Several users of get_sb_single() is
parse data only on ->remount_fs. Well, ok, I like new behavior actually.
But we need to convert to new behavior such users.

I've listed all possibly affected users up (if I'm not missing). This
means, using both data on ->fill_super and ->remount_fs is devtmpfs
only. And capifs, usbfs, devpts would be needed the patch.

arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/inode.c
	->fill_super
arch/s390/hypfs/inode.c
	->fill_super
drivers/isdn/capi/capifs.c
	->remount_fs
drivers/base/devtmpfs.c
	->fill_super
	->remount_fs
drivers/usb/core/inode.c
	->remount_fs
fs/devpts/inode.c
	->remount_fs

Currently, I'm working on other bugs, so I just attached quick fix for
regression.
