    Hi,

    What are the intended semantics for a remount:

    (a) equivalent to a mount, resetting all mount options that
        might be set
    (b) change mount options relative to the current mount Aoptions

    For ext2, the 2.2.17 kernel implements (a),
    while 2.4.0-test8 implements (b).

    Thanks,
    Andreas.
