[lxc-devel] [PATCH 1/2] lxc-netstat: improve finding fs mountpoint of hierarchy

[Natanael Copa]

We cannot assume that the mount source name always starts with 'cgroup'
so we check the filesystem type instead.

Use 'awk' instead of 'grep -E' and  as it is a better tool for this job.

This fixes the tool on systems using openrc.
