>Description:
The wapbl "replaying log to disk" message uses the last mount point
instead of the current mount point in its printf, which scared
the heck out of me when mounting a removable drive that was the
root filesystem of another machine on my laptop.
>How-To-Repeat:
Take the root filesystem from another drive and mount it on /mnt:
# mount /dev/ld0a /mnt
/: replaying log to disk
The printf in ffs_vfsops.c uses fs_fsmnt, but this is the
last mounted point, not the current mount point.
>Fix:
Any of the following messages would be much more informative (and
a lot less scary).
/dev/ld0a (last mounted on /): replaying log to disk
/dev/ld0a: replaying log to disk
/mnt: replaying log to disk
