I think your commit message needs a bit more information.
It'd be useful to describe that the introduction of
sb_rdonly converted the bitwise & to a boolean and so
this conversion and comparison was made defective.
Are there any other instances of defective comparisons?

Please ask to that patch author.

The patch author, David Howells, is on the cc list.
btw:
It seems all the the other uses use a (bool) cast of the
(*flags & MS_RDONLY) and a comparison of sb_rdonly(sb).
It would make sense to change the argument type of the
ext[24]_setup_super int read_only arg to bool to match
the sb_rdonly() type.

Sentence is hard to understand.

I did this:
: From: OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@mail.parknet.co.jp>
: Subject: fat: Fix sb_rdonly() change
:
: bc98a42c1f7d0f ("VFS: Convert sb->s_flags & MS_RDONLY to sb_rdonly(sb)")
: converted fat_remount():new_rdonly from a bool to an int. However
: fat_remount() depends upon the compiler's conversion of a non-zero integer
: into boolean `true'.
:
: Fix it by switching `new_rdonly' back into a bool.
