Best practice if you don't want to include NFS mounts is to exclude it from
the list of filesystem types.

--collector.filesystem.fs-types-exclude="^(autofs|binfmt_misc|bpf|cgroup2?|configfs|debugfs|devpts|devtmpfs|fusectl|hugetlbfs|iso9660|mqueue|
*nfs*
|nsfs|overlay|proc|procfs|pstore|rpc_pipefs|securityfs|selinuxfs|squashfs|sysfs|tracefs)$"
