[OE-core] [PATCH] lib/oe: copyhardlinktree - detect mount points Add function getmount to detect the mount point of the path, as os.stat(path).st_dev in copyhardlinktree fails in lxc containers to detect different paths as separate mounted filesystems (cp -l failure)

Can you measure the affect on build time with this change?

In current master, realpath() seems to need 2 args:

Exception: TypeError: realpath() takes at least 2 arguments (1 given)
