I noticed that I can't remount nullfs by mount(8).  The patched
mount_null accepts only one argument (the mountpoint to be remounted)
when MNT_UPDATE is specified either by -u or by -o update, but
what mount(8) passes to filesystem-specific mount commands like this:
  # mount -ur /mnt/pt
  -> mount_${foo} -o ro -o update /path/to/special /mnt/pt
  # mount -uw /mnt/pt
  -> mount_${foo} -o noro -o update /path/to/special /mnt/pt

I think that the following patch on top of yours does this for you,
although I only tested it slightly.
