Ah, okay. Haven't seen that on my system. Wonder why is that.

I will post v3 for the patch that sets up /dev/* (even though it had
been ACKed). However, on my system there is more:

# findmnt -R /dev/
TARGET        SOURCE FSTYPE   OPTIONS
/dev          udev   devtmpfs 
rw,nosuid,relatime,size=10240k,nr_inodes=2013332,mode=755
├─/dev/pts    devpts devpts   rw,relatime,gid=5,mode=620,ptmxmode=000
├─/dev/mqueue mqueue mqueue   rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime
└─/dev/shm    shm    tmpfs    rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,relatime

Should we worry about /dev/mqueue too? No idea what it is.
