Could you please check, if the solution mentioned here works for you:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1361043
A short summary: Similar error can be caused by shared mounts.
This way you can check if this applies.
Note 'shared' in the output:
grep -iP '/ /\s' /proc/$$/mountinfo
...
25 0 252:1 / / rw,relatime shared:1 - ext4 /dev/mapper/my--vg-root
rw,errors=remount-ro,data=ordered
...
This is usual in systemd systems, and Ubuntu is one of them.
Calling unshare -m within the process context helps this.
I'm forwarding this also to devel, so that we can discuss, if doing this is
advisable in
general. WDYT?
