Depends how you think about it.  I think of foo ^= bar as 'toggle the
bar bit in foo'.  So I read the code as 'If the mount bit is incorrect,
print an error and toggle the bit'.  I think you're reading the old code
as 'If the new mount bit differs from the old mount bit, make sure the
new mount bit is the same as the old mount bit'.
