Well, I would be much more skeptical because I simply believe that neither of the approach is better in general. It really depends on the usecases. And systemd or whoever mounts the hierarchy has no slightest idea what is the case. So we might end up with a global knob to control the mount point after all. But as I've said no strong opinion on that. -- Michal Hocko SUSE Labs -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@xxxxxxxxx.
