Unfortunatelly this does not work if the default subvolume is not the
toplevel one and the implicit mount (ie. without subvol=) is used. Then
this leads to subvol=/ although it should be subvol=/the/default .

There was a patch to build the path in the show_options callback, but it
looked too heavy (taking locks, doing lookups). This is unrelated to the
problem reported by Timo, though the fix might also fix this one.
