+ * export; further lookup and readdir operations are treated as if every
+ * subdirectory was a mountpoint, and ignored if they are not themselves
+ * exported.  This is used by nfsd and mountd to construct the NFSv4
+ * pseudofilesystem, which provides access only to paths leading to each
+ * exported filesystem.
