With BigSur DP3 I'm seeing denials to mount to a virtual empty directory at /.

I have a virtual entry at the / with a help of synthetic.conf, and used to mount a separate APFS volume into it with the following record in /etc/fstab

Code Block LABEL=<LABEL> /<FOLDER> apfs rw

With BigSur DP1 and DP2 this worked great.
With BigSur DP3 I'm not getting my extra volumes auto-mounted on startup.
An attempt to mount it manually ended up with error, in Console I can also see

Code Block kernel System Policy: mount_apfs(***) deny(1) file-mount /<root folder>

If this is a new privacy restriction, what is the correct way to perform what I need?

Thanks beforehand for any pointers.

Ok, nevermind, got it the other way around, relying only on synthetic.conf's linking with

Code Block <FOLDER>	Volumes/<LABEL>
