It is not so unusual that some mount option is introduced as
fs-specific and later re-implemented as generic (another example is
MS_LAZYTIME). The mount(8) cares about the generic options only.

I don't remember this change, but MS_I_VERSION is part of the kernel
API (include/uapi/linux/fs.h) so I guess it's fine to support it in
mount(8).
