I would like that if someone can comment can we do reconfigure so that
we change mount options? Can we example change iocharset and be ok after
that? I have look some other fs drivers and in my eyes it seems to be
quite random if driver should let reconfigure all parameters. Right now
code is that we can reconfigure every mount parameter but I do not know
if this is right call.
