Just a clarification (or confusion):  it's only umount that causes the
problem.  mount doesn't create a new /etc/mtab file and doesn't change
the context:

   # ls -Z /etc/mtab
   -rw-r--r--  root     root     system_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t  /etc/mtab
   # ls -i /etc/mtab
   33032 /etc/mtab
   # mount /opt
   # ls -Z /etc/mtab
   -rw-r--r--  root     root     system_u:object_r:etc_runtime_t  /etc/mtab
   # ls -i /etc/mtab
   33032 /etc/mtab
   #
