If you make device a string it is assumed to be a device node.
Looking in the manual for mentions of bind-mount I found the
documentation of %immutable-store, which is a bind-mounted filesystem
that exists by default in Guix System. It's implemented in
'gnu/systems/file-systems.scm' and hopefully provides a helpful example:
