Differences to lsof/fuser

23       ·   `lsof  /home/user`  and `fuser /home/user` would not list processes
24           that have a descriptor open on /home/user/subdir.
25
26       ·   `fuser -m /home/subdir` would automatically go down to the root  of
27           a vfsmount (e.g. /home) and list all processes, instead of limiting
28           to /home/subdir.
