Thank you for letting me know this.
The problem is mount/umount helper programs of nilfs2 are using a few
userspace mount options like "uhelper=" option; these userspace
options ("gcpid=", "pp=", and "nogc" options in the case of nilfs)
required modifying mtab.
I will consider eliminating them before upcoming nilfs-utils-2.1
release.
Thanks,
Ryusuke Konishi
