Above this code, there is a call:

        if (!pseudo_real_lstat || (pseudo_real_lstat(newpath, buf) == -1)) {

so we do have a statfs structure populated. Can we test buf.f_type ==
PROC_SUPER_MAGIC on that instead of calling open()? Or does that not contain the
right information?

Cheers,

Richard
