Hi Michael,

Actually, "none" is not used. It is not the proper type there, but since it
is not used, we can go ahead. If we check the documentation, we can see
the text "The filesystemtype and data arguments are ignored." in options
BIND, MOVE and REMOUNT. So, no matter which option we put, the syscall
will ignore.
