I created a brand new ReiserFS filesystem on a spare device and tried to
mount it on /mnt/tmp via /etc/fstab.  Upon rebooting, dmesg contains:

ReiserFS: md9: warning: xattrs/ACLs enabled and couldn't find/create
.reiserfs_priv.  Failing mount.

So it looks like the mount command can't find the SELinux contexts for
the filesystem, because the SELinux contexts for the filesystem aren't
set, because it can't find the SELinux contexts for the filesystem....
