Being able to signal an error if the time update fails is still
possible even if we drop update_time(), because the new write_time()
function will return an error.

Yes, but this doesn't answer my question about other places where the
VFS is only checking MS_RDONLY and MNT_READONLY besides just
update_atime().  Maybe we should be exposing an "is_readonly(inode)"
inode operations function to address this?
