Changing the content of /proc/mounts broke 

 user@hostname:/proc/self$ sudo umount.nfs nfsserver:/srv/ubuntu-32
 umount.nfs: nfsserver:/srv/ubuntu-32: not found

with nfs2 and nfs3 and this looks like the minimal change to get it
working again, so for what it's worth,

How about something like the following on top?

Subject: nfs: convert boolean nfs_path() argument to a flag word

If nfs_path() gains any other boolean settings, they can share the
flag argument, and this way call sites look like "nfs_path(&limit,
dentry, buffer, buflen, NFS_PATH_CANONICAL);" so the reader does not
need to guess the sense of true and false.  No functional change
intended.
