I have an use case that requires persisting a mount (/sysroot/mnt) from

Ideally I should add the mount unit in the /usr itself but /usr is a
read only signed fs that I can't modify for reasons. I can arbitrarily
change initramfs though. As it is an ephemerous system, there isn't any
other place.
Is it somehow possible? I couldn't think of a way surviving the
pivot_root for volatile.
Did you try to mount it in initrd on /sysroot/mnt? It needs to be after
systemd-volatile-roor.service.
