That's interesting because my system doesn't behave the same. I had of
course checked, before writing my first message, that 'mount /boot/efi2'
returns exit status 0 even when /boot/efi2 is already mounted. With your
script (called foo.sh here), here is what I get:

# mount | grep efi2
/dev/sda1 on /boot/efi2 type vfat 
(rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro)
# /tmp/foo.sh
do important stuff
# mount | grep efi2
/dev/sda1 on /boot/efi2 type vfat 
(rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro)
/dev/sda1 on /boot/efi2 type vfat 
(rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro)
#

Every invocation adds a new, duplicate entry in the output of 'mount'.

This is Debian sid amd64; /usr/bin/mount is from 'mount' package version
2.40.2-8.
