Re: Mount multiple file system with the same UUID

Looks like XFS v5 and ext4 checksums include fs UUID throughout the
filesystem metadata. For XFS changing the UUID has been disabled in
xfs_admin whereas tune2fs supports changing it (which I'd think could
take quite a while). Btrfs supports it via seed device + device add +
removing seed which also can take quite a while.

Anyway, three file systems are (or are about to be) affected by this
so a general purpose solution seems in order.
