Subject: NILFS2: double uuid

Hi,

a nilfs2 formatted disk fails to mount via fstab due to double uuid's.
See lsblk output below. The logs indicate that the system attempts to
mount /dev/sdb rather than /dev/sdb1, which of course fails. In
addition, /dev/sdb should not have any uuid at all. Don't know why
that happens.

The phenomenon is easily reproducible: format a partition with nilfs2,
register it with the proper uuid in fstab and reboot. Tried both with
USB memory and real HDD.

[root@...ra ~]# lsblk -f
NAME        FSTYPE LABEL UUID                                 MOUNTPOINT
sdb                      ff17dda9-fcae-42e7-a438-9087de58902e                                      
`-sdb1      xfs          ff17dda9-fcae-42e7-a438-9087de58902e 

Thanks,
 Heinz
