UUID is set when creating nilfs volume with mkfs.nilfs2 (or mkfs -t
nilfs2).  But, the current standard mount program does not identify
the UUID of nilfs partitions.

Unfortunately, no UUID (nor label) tool is yet available for nilfs
though it's not time-consuming job.

The problem is that we were not able to promote nilfs to such standard
tools yet.  Recently we had discussion on the procedure to do this,
but sorry, it seems still take a while by the time it becomes
available commonly.
