ObMount: now that MS_MOVE is in 2.5 (and submitted for merge in 2.4)
mount --move <oldpath> <newpath> would be nice...
Effect of mount(old, new, NULL, MS_MOVE, NULL): subtree mounted at
"old" is taken to "new". Move is atomic and takes all references
to objects in a subtree with it - opened files, current directories,
etc. Requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
Errors:
requires CAP_SYS_ADMIN (EPERM)
old and new must exist (ENOENT)
old must be a mountpoint (EINVAL)
new must not be a descendent of old (ELOOP)
old must not be the absolute root (EINVAL)
if old is directory new must be a directory and vice versa (EINVAL)
+ usual set of errors from lookups for old and new (EFAULT if either
is not a valid address, ENOTDIR if component in the middle is not a
directory, ELOOP if too many links, EACCES if no execute permissions
on some component in the middle, ENOMEM if someone's out of memory, EIO
if fs feels like that, etc. - the usual)
