What would you expect to see under /var/lib/lxc?

You haven't defined a network, so your container is using the host's
network.  You haven't defined a private /dev, so you're using the
host's /dev.  If you're using sysvinit or systemd, you can reboot
bc you can talk to /dev/initctl.  If upstart, you are talking to
the host's upstart over an abstract unix socket.

If you mount --bind /tmp /mnt, you'll see that that is not reflected
on the host.  You have a private mount table, that is all.
