Maybe it could log the device node instead of the mount point? Then the
messages from both APIs could remain consistent. One is probably as good
as the other and the other mount related log messages all seem to be
using the device node:

[   39.379071] EXT4-fs (sda3): mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. Quota mode: none.
[   39.574146] XFS (sda4): Mounting V5 Filesystem

I assume that info is available at this point because the filesystems
are able to use it in their log messages, but I could be wrong.

I don't really have a preference for how its fixed. I reported it
because I happened to notice it go missing after a system upgrade.

I did my best to make a small suggestion despite a lack of expertise in
this area.
