When unmounting a filesystem we will try, among many other things, to
commit the super block. On a filesystem that was shutdown, though, this
will always fail with -EROFS as writes are forbidden on this context;
and an error will be reported.

Don't commit the super block on this situation, which should be fine as
the filesystem is frozen before shutdown and, therefore, it should be at
a consistent state.
