   Not sure why that would be necessary, unless you’re doing low-level   
   access to the volume and bypassing the filesystem code in the kernel.   
      
   Otherwise you can rely on the kernel to ensure the filesystem is fit   
   to access -- that is the authoritative implementation of the   
   filesystem-access code, after all.
