I'm pretty sure than the vfs deals with reporting unknown options

and returns -EINVAL already.


I think the caller oferofs_fc_parse_param() is vfs_parse_fs_param()

and for an -ENOPARAM return will ultimately do this:

return invalf(fc, "%s: Unknown parameter '%s'", fc->fs_type->name, 
param->key);

which does this.

The thing about this is the mount API macro deals with (or it should,

although I'm not sure that's completely sorted out yet) logging the

message to the console log as well as possibly making it available to

mount api system calls. I'm pretty sure this change will prevent the

error message being available for mount api system calls to retrieve.
