A walk run while a dataset was unmounted wrote onto root's empty mount point, or
"dropped" entries from it and forgot the ones on the data; a folder kept while empty
below an unnamed mount was then swept whole once the disk mounted, with no warrant.
Every walk is now judged as an apply is, a changed mount judges the folder afresh, and
systemd .mount units and mounts seen are read for the first-sight rule. Widening a
mask caps the entries it limited, so the owning group gains nothing. The watch lets
go of removed folders, re-arms on lost notice, reads users under its lock and ends
with its context. A drop that cannot read an ACL is counted, a broken folder's words
carry no path, a grant's group that could not be left is tried again, and a folder's
stat is bounded.
