mount --move

[Norman Gaywood]

I'm pretty sure that in 3.3.2-6.fc16.x86_64 this sequence worked:

  mkdir -p /tmp/testing
  cd /tmp/testing/
  mkdir -p foo bar
  mount -t tmpfs tmpfs foo/
  mount --move foo bar/

With 3.3.5-2.fc16.x86_64 the last step gives:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /tmp/testing/foo,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error
       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail  or so

Didn't test any kernels between those two.

Is this a bug or feature? Didn't see anything is syslog.
