--- Comment #18 from János Tóth F. <janos666@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
I ran into this problem recently with kernel 4.5.5 when I tried copy-pasting
all my mount options of / from fstab to the kernel cmdline as rootflags after I
learned the space_cache=V2 mount option of Btrfs does not activate the new
cache properly during the fstab-based RW remount of / when the kernel mounted
it RO with default options including space_cache V1 (at least based on the
kernel log messages but this should probably be investigated further if RO/RW
has anything to do with this, or if it's enough to do the initial mount with
this cache V2 option for a single time when the old space cache v1 should be
invalidated and a new v2 type cache must be created or these have to stay for
consecutive reboots).

This might be Gentoo-specific but I also noticed localmount won't re-mount my /
with the fstab options when I have this cache rootflag in my kernel cmdline.
Thus, I have to manually re-mount / with noatime if I wish to have that option
together with cache V2.

I also realized this bug would pretty much be the only reason for me to keep a
/ entry in my fstab (to apply noatime). But more precisely, my current fstab
entry is useless anyway (noatime isn't applied anyway when I specify RW and
rootflags in the kernel cmdline).
