No, a bind mount doesn't take a device name as an argument. It takes
two directory names. From the man page:
mount --bind|--rbind|--move olddir newdir
It's used when you've already got the device mounted somewhere (the first
directory), and you'd also like it to appear in a second place.
That could be interpreted to mean it still applies to a (mounted) device, but it doesn't - olddir can be anywhere, not just a mount point.
