+Subject: [PATCH] core-services, shutdown.d: force legacy mount iface for
+ remount
+
+With util-linux>=2.40, filesystems that do not support remounting with
+different options fail because the new kernel mount interface is used.
+This breaks booting an overlayfs (like live ISOs).
+
+By setting `LIBMOUNT_FORCE_MOUNT2=always`, we force `mount(8)` to use
+the old kernel mount interface, which ignores changed options.
+
