I have a LUKS-encrypted / with LVM volumes within it, and they
(apparently?) need to be remounted read-only upon shutdown. I've not
found an easy way to take a picture of the process so I can indicate
*why*, but I've seen it scroll by.

I use an initramfs to decrypt the LUKS partition and discover the LVM
volumes. I can only assume it goes read-only before shutdown/reboot
because it needs to.

Just my two cents.
