I've looked a bit into it and realized I've no good idea: I naively thought that procfs sb's have different pid namespaces, but it's not true anymore. So I've no idea how to identify them. The same applies to tmpfs instances, no simple id. If somebody has any ideas, I'd appreciate. If not, we can enhance it later. Thanks!
