    [$] configfd() and shifting bind mounts
    The 5.2 kernel saw the addition of an extensive new API for the mounting
    (and remounting) of filesystems; this
    article     covered an early version of that API. Since then, work in this
    area has mostly focused on enabling filesystems to support this API fully.
    James Bottomley has taken a look at this API as part of the job of
    redesigning his shiftfs filesystem and
    found it to be incomplete. What has followed is a significant set of
    changes that promise to simplify the mount API — though it turns out that
    "simple" is often in the eye of the beholder.
