The partition was mounted with a read-write mount. Is this right?
Cleanerd cannot operates on the read-only mount.

Ah, it might be due to lack of /proc mount.

The clearner daemon does not see /etc/mtab, instead it scans
/proc/mounts.  The nilfs library function looks to fail if the
/proc/mounts is not there.
