No, I moved all that default configuration into the binary's defaults.

it is not the simplest, but in the default file you have the
documentation on how to do it, along with the current default value:

#
--collector.filesystem.ignored-mount-points="^/(dev|proc|run|sys|var/lib/docker)($|/)"
#                            Regexp of mount points to ignore for filesystem
#                            collector.
