Mold under vinyl floor in Master Bath

We have mold under our vinyl flooring just like the link above. In our bathroom it is in next to the shower where the vinyl floor was calked up next to the shower tub.

The question is how to safely clean this up. We will most likely replace the vinyl with ceramic or porcelain tile.

The big question we have is what to do about the subfloor. It is tongue and groove OSB. If we can get the vinyl up off the subfloor can we safely clean the OSB or will we most likely have to rip up the subfloor and replace it completely? If the answer is "it depends", then what would warrant replacing the subfloor?
