Not, it is one big "/" - they look to be separate filesystems in "df", 
but they are not.

Think of "/" as a LVM volume group with the individual subvolumes being 
thin provisioned logical volumes that can grow.

The subvolumes are there for snapshot management purposes - in reality 
it is just a big "/" filesystem.
