Thanks for finding out the root cause of the problem in short time!
This is so cool!
I'm not sure why bisect commit point to "new mount api", and I made
the revert commit on top of v6.1-rc8 failed, so this time bisect could not
100% confirm the bad commit, maybe there are 2 or more commits trigger this
issue.
Anyway, I'm glad it's helpful.

Thanks!
