Why don't we remove mount_nullfs entirely? Such check is trivial to do
in kernel, all is needed is to change mntopts and add compatibility
shims.

Take a look at pefs_mount if interested:
http://github.com/glk/pefs/blob/master/sys/fs/pefs/pefs_vfsops.c

There is no mount_pefs and 'pefs mount' command exec's /sbin/mount,
'mount -t pefs' is supported as well; search for pefs_mount in:
http://github.com/glk/pefs/blob/master/sbin/pefs/pefs_ctl.c

Thanks,
Gleb.
