Can you please make it return bool?

I haven't looked at later patches but I suppose this is gonna be
filled with more meaningful stuff later. One (possibly silly) thing
that stands out compared to get_sb_single() is missing remount
handling. Is it intended?

Another nit picking. It would be better to wrap SB in the macro
definition. Also, wouldn't an inline function be better?

Thanks.
