While this is a standard option as documented in mount(8), it is ignored by
most filesystems. So reject, unless filesystem explicitly wants to handle
it.
The exception is unconverted filesystems, where it is unknown if the
filesystem handles this or not.
Any implementation, such as mount(8) that needs to parse this option
without failing should simply ignore the return value from fsconfig().
