Arnd, what is the default value of sys_tz.tz_minuteswest? What is the
benefit of not using it?
I though that timezone mount option is just an old hack when userspace
does not correctly set kernel's timezone and that this timezone mount
option should be in most cases avoided.
So also another question, what is benefit of having fs specific timezone
mount option? As it is fs specific it means that it would be used so
much.
