Ah, that's right.

Or PLAN9_MOUNT_OPTIONS?

Make update fs-specific mount options in local.config file more easily
when switching filesysm type to test? You don't have to update
MOUNT_OPTIONS and TEST_FS_MOUNT_OPTS.

The '-nfs'/'-9p' command line flags are used to indicate which
filesystem it's testing and set FSTYP variable correctly. Because these
filesystems can't be detected from $TEST_DEV automatically like XFS,
ext4 etc.
