Ugh...I think I do that 2 lines above, right?

Recent patch: "c23c393eaab5d xfs: remove deprecated mount options", added warning about deprecated options being passed as mount options. These warnings are currently printed *both during mount and remount* of the FS.

However some users find the repetitive printing of warnings *during remount* as an inconvenience (https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=211605 - Re-mount XFS causes "attr2 mount option is deprecated" warning).

To address this a patch that stops printing the warning on *remount* (if the option has the same value as during the mount) was proposed https://lore.kernel.org/linux-xfs/20210224214323.394286-1-preichl@xxxxxxxxxx/

Is it clear now?

Thanks for the comments.
