To make sure I understand correctly: the problem is that the second mount ig=
nored the options because the device was already mounted, right?

For the new API, I think the only remotely sane approach is to refuse to mou=
nt or init or whatever you call it an already mounted bdev. If user code gen=
uinely needs to bind-mount an existing mount that is known only by its bdev,=
 we can add a specific API just for that.=
