Not only exported explicitly, but also kept in the same hierarchy.

If we export 
/mnt/test		#the btrfs
/mnt/test/sub1	# the btrfs subvol 1
/mnt/test/sub2	# the btrfs subvol 2

we need to make sure we will not access '/mnt/test/sub1' through '/mnt/test'
from nfs client.

current safe export:
#/mnt/test		#the btrfs, not exported
/mnt/test/sub1	# the btrfs subvol 1
/mnt/test/sub2	# the btrfs subvol 2
