fs: simplify check in mount_setattr_commit()

In order to determine whether we need to call mnt_unhold_writers() in
mount_setattr_commit() we currently do not just check whether
MNT_WRITE_HOLD is set but also if a read-only mount was requested.

However, checking whether MNT_WRITE_HOLD is set is enough. Setting
MNT_WRITE_HOLD requires lock_mount_hash() to be held and it must be
unset before calling unlock_mount_hash(). This guarantees that if we see
MNT_WRITE_HOLD we know that we were the ones who set it earlier. We
don't need to care about why we set it. Plus, leaving this additional
read-only check in makes the code more confusing because it implies that
MNT_WRITE_HOLD could've been set by another thread when it really can't.
Remove it and update the associated comment.
