You can create a new instance of rpc_pipefs using 'newinstance'
mountoption.

Then you can specify which rpc_pipefs to use with 'rpcmount' mountoption
of nfs mount. If none specifed, '/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs' uses by default.
If no rpcmount mountoption, no rpc_pipefs was found at
'/var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs' and we are in init's mount namespace, we use
init_rpc_pipefs.
