Hm, yes, it's really only cosmetic in that printk.

Yep, because when this is printed, it simply looks at the set option flags,
and essentially prints the option name once for each (non-default) flag
that is set.

What we probably would want is something similar to that code (in
_ext4_show_options) which is more generic, and could generate a string
for use in the remount case as well.
