I'd not heard of either `mountpoint` or `findmnt` before. I see they're
both part of util-linux, so I guess as likely as each other to be
available (which is one criterion I would use for choosing)
The approach I would have used (and it's not infallible) is
test -f /mnt/usb-drive-b/.some-file
where '.some-file' exists on the device but not on the empty mount
point.
