There's a test case for ostree admin unlock --hotfix that runs in FCOS, not here; it breaks when enabling composefs.

The reason is because the composefs is mounted readonly, and we tried to remount it writable. Instead of trying to remount the rootfs writable at this point forcibly, honor the real sysroot readonly state flag from the underlying FS before we mounted the composefs.

Note that in FCOS derivatives we always have the root mounted writable via rw on the kernel cmdline and this is the default general expectation now with ostree usage.

the rootfs writable at this point forcibly, honor the
*real* sysroot readonly state flag from the underlying FS before
we mounted the composefs.
