The example in the documentation(
https://guix.gnu.org/en/manual/devel/en/html_node/Invoking-guix-shell.html#Invoking-guix-shell)
for guix shell --share fails:

```
$ guix shell --container --expose=$HOME=/exchange guile -- guile
guix shell: error: mount: mount "/home/dev_1" on
"/tmp/guix-directory.X5HsZw//exchange": Invalid argument
```

I feel guix shell --container can only mount subdir in /tmp, and fail for
all other dir:
```
# success in subdir of  /tmp
dev_1@dev_1 /tmp/test$ guix shell --container coreutils
dev_1@dev_1 /tmp/test [env]$ exit

# fail for all other dir
dev_1@dev_1 ~$ guix shell --container coreutils
guix shell: error: mount: mount "/home/dev_1" on
"/tmp/guix-directory.63aHz8//home/dev_1": Invalid argument

dev_1@dev_1 /mnt$ guix shell --container coreutils
guix shell: error: mount: mount "/mnt" on
"/tmp/guix-directory.Zu897m//mnt": Invalid argument

```
