Right now, we use simple string comparison both on the source paths (mount's output vs pool's source) and the target (mount's mnt_dir vs pool's target). The problem are symlinks and mount indeed returns symlinks in its output, e.g. /dev/mappper/lvm_symlink. The same goes for the pool's source/target, so in order to successfully compare these two replace plain string comparison with virFileComparePaths which will resolve all symlinks and canonicalize the paths prior to comparison.
