A minor improvement, IMO, is:

	struct list_head *tmp;
restart:
	spin_lock(&sb_lock);
	list_for_each(tmp, super_blocks) {
		struct super_block *sb = sb_entry(tmp);
		if (sb->s_dirt) {
			sb->s_count++;
			spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
			down_read(&sb->s_umount);
			write_super(sb);
			drop_super(sb);
			goto restart;
		}
	}
	spin_unlock(&sb_lock);
