+# Using the new file descriptors based mount kernel API can cause rootfs remount failure with some older kernels.
+# Of currently supported LTS kernels, the old mount API should be used with:

+# - versions prior to 6.1.79 in the 6.1.y series.
+# - versions till at least 5.15.164 in the 5.15.y series.
