Podfuk doesn't handle the new multiple mountpoint feature correctly. The
kernel needs to know which cfs device to associate with the mountpoint.
Because of this podfuk needs to do the mounting itself and pass the
filedescriptor of the device it has opened as an argument to the mount.

If the correct data is not passed along, the kernel module always tries
to fall back to /dev/cfs0.
