It's used on Book-E powerpc* in some cases (and the bootloader is compiled and 
installed there by default on powerpc*) but it's a regular directory. I don't 
believe there's any custom behavior to treat it as a mount point because 
setting up booting is a machine specific thing in this case, and the user is 
expected to do something like copy it to the boot server or a partition on the 
bootstrap media.

For example, on the X5000, the boot firmware is stored on an onboard SD card 
that has space left to install loaders and stuff, but this is something that is 
set up by hand.
